1> I'll be more than happy to put a copy of your scripts in the dump

4So you may have a look at the enclosed scripts.
5
6I use rsh in both directions. This may easily be changed to ssh.

8Basically three scripts are now necessary. The first wraps around the
9dump-command, the second acts as user exit when CD has to be changed
10and the third has to be run on the remote box.
11
12To make things easier I put the first two into one file called
13dump-to-remote-cd. The second file called get-dumpdata-to-cdrecord must
14be copied to the box with the CD-Burner. There is a small
15configuration section in it to get cdrecord to work.
16
17dump-to-remote-cd may be called with the capacity of the media which
18is used and / or a filesystem argument passed to dump.
19
20Usage is:
21
22dump-to-remote-cd [ -c <CD_capacity> ] [files to dump ...]
23
24There are defaults in the scripts which are used if any of these
25arguments are missing. The hostname of the box with the CD-burner
26has to be edited in any case.
