As it seems that you are the maintainer of the dump packet I have a question:
Why do you still use the outdated BSD rmt server that suffers from Linux
kernel incompatibilities and makes it hard ot impossible to do remote dumps
between different architectures?
The star package:
ftp://ftp.fokus.gmd.de/pub/unix/star/alpha/
has a much better rmt server and client code which hides platform dependencies
and gives many new features as:
- large file support
- a security concept that is definable in /etc/default/rmt
- Support for Sun's additions to abstract from rmt status
platform incompatibilities
- Support for Sun and Schily additions that abstract from
rmt ioctl platform incompatibilities
- Support for GNU additions to abstract from open mode
flag platform incompatibilities
