How much data,

all of our machines behind a firewall (freebsd) are replicated with dump->
gzip -> copy to a holding area inside our network and then backupped
regularly as local filesystems, talking about several Gb here

  I've recently been tasked with backing up a bunch of data behind a
firewall.  The only way to do this I've found is to export the
filesystems to a machine outside the firewall and lock down this machine
so only the legato server can access it.

When I try to kick off the backups though it skips the filesystem saying
it's remote.  I can manually back it up if I specify "save -L"...  Is
there a directive I can put in /.nsr to tell it to back up
"/mnt/server/files" ?  Any other thoughts?
