Directory. UNIX doesn't have "folders". The correct
(technical) terminology is "directory". That's just
what it is called.
Sorry for being that pedantic, but I'm sure you don't call
a file "sheet of paper" or the monitor "the TV", or the
whole computer "the hard disk" or "the modem" respectively. :-)
Back on topic:
As it has already be pointed out, the advantage of dump is
that it can operate on mounted partitions (-L highly re-
commended) as well as unmounted ones, which can be needed
under certain circumstances (e. g. due to security concerns).
For synchronization, rsync is a fine tool. I would also like
to mention the cpdup program (found in ports) which is also
very handy for rsync-like tasks.
