server that ran the backup
Linux 2.4.21-27.0.2.ELsmp
dump 0.4b37

client that got backed up
Linux 2.6.9-22.ELsmp
dump 0.4b39

sorry to reply to myself here but on another test

client
Linux 2.4.20
dump 0.4b27

and the same server did a succesful restore so it seems that if the client version of dump is higher than the server the restore barfs however the opposite appears to give a good restore -

Looks like i'm going to have to install myself a new server box with dump 0.4b39 so get around this - Unless anyone has any other suggestions?

thanks
