Hello,
I've just hooked up my Western Digital MyBook 750G external usb hard
drive to my server in order to make some backups. The drive is formated
UFS, and it seems to work well.
However, when doing large file transfers (ie, using DUMP or gzip'ing
files) I keep getting these errors every s

I have freebsd 4.10 on one of my production servers.
I have been using the dump/restore combo to backup my drive, and I run a
nightly dump -9 on the /home partition, and most of the dump -9s are
dumped to a single tape since I don't have daily acs to swap the tapes
more than once a month or so
Just wanted to thank all the people who replied about setting up
Spamassassin w/ Freebsd. I've got it working, and have cut my spam by
much over half. I got it working with procmail.
Thanks to all, and Merry Christmas, and Happy new Year.
