This is assuming you have another account on another freebsd/linux box with a significant amount of space. Works great on a live filesystem. I use /, /var, /tmp, and /usr as examples. dump -L -0f - /usr | ssh -C [EMAIL PROTECTED] "cat > /usr/home/login/usr.dump" dump -L -0f - /tmp | ssh -C [EMAIL PROTECTED] "cat > /usr/home/login/tmp.dump" dump -L -0f - /var | ssh -C [EMAIL PROTECTED] "cat > /usr/home/login/var.dump" dump -L -0f - / | ssh -C [EMAIL PROTECTED] "cat > /usr/home/login/root.dump" Then to restore: cd /usr ; ssh -C [EMAIL PROTECTED] "cat /usr/home/login/usr.dump" | restore -rf - cd / ; ssh -C [EMAIL PROTECTED] "cat /usr/home/login/root.dump" | restore -rf - cd /var ; ssh -C [EMAIL PROTECTED] "cat /usr/home/login/var.dump" | restore -rf - cd /tmp ; ssh -C [EMAIL PROTECTED] "cat /usr/home/login/tmp.dump" | restore -rf - michael
