Ts'o) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd Subject: Pointer to paper on BSD dump/restore programs... Date: 20 Aug 1993 23:28:38 GMT Organization: Massachusetts Institute of Technology Lines: 8 Distribution: world Message-ID: <TYTSO.93Aug20192838@tsx-11.mit.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: tsx-11.mit.edu I'm looking for a pointer to papers describing the algorithms used by the BSD dump and restore programs. I note the man pages for dump refers to the paper "Guide to Backup and Restore", but I haven't been able to locate it. Could someone help me out? Thanks!!! - Ted
