Hi,

On one of our machines that we backup using tar instead of dump we
sometimes, abour 2 a month get

FAILED AND STRANGE DUMP DETAILS:

/-- xxx       /xxx/arch/xxxx lev 0 STRANGE
sendbackup: start [xxx:/xxx/arch/xxx level 0]
sendbackup: info BACKUP=/bin/gtar
sendbackup: info RECOVER_CMD=/bin/gzip -dc |/bin/gtar -f... -
sendbackup: info COMPRESS_SUFFIX=.gz
sendbackup: info end
| Total bytes written: 698746880 (666MB, 1.7MB/s)
? sed: couldn't write 18 items to {standard output}: Connection timed out
sendbackup: size 682370
sendbackup: end
\--------

does anyone know what causes this?

thanks
