Thanks very much for that. While we are talking about dump options. Is there
a reason why -L is not used?
FreeBSD 'dump' man page
-L This option is to notify dump that it is dumping a live file sys-
tem. To obtain a consistent dump image, dump takes a snapshot
of
the file system in the .snap directory in the root of the file
system being dumped and then does a dump of the snapshot. The
snapshot is removed when the dump is complete.

Subject: Re: dump estimate (sendsize) on 2.5.1p3 not working
Chris,
The attached patch fix the problem.
The problem is the two 'S', one of them should be 'h'.
The patch is already in the CVS.

Not sure if this is to do with the FreeBSD port but upgrading to
2.5.1p3 from p2 and the dump estimate has stopped working. Here is the
debug output from client sendsize.

not sure why the extra argument "0" has been added. Any ideas?
Thanks
