RRESTORE(8N)            COMMAND REFERENCE            RRESTORE(8N)



NAME
     rrestore - restore a file system dump across the network

SYNOPSIS
     /etc/rrestore [ key ] [ filename ... ]

DESCRIPTION
     Rrestore obtains from magnetic tape files saved by a
     previous dump(8).  The command is identical in operation to
     restore(8) except that the f key should be specified and the
     file supplied should be of the form machine.user:device.

     Rrestore creates a remote server /etc/rmt on the client
     machine to access the tape device.

     To gain access to the device you wish to restore to on the
     remote machine, you must do two things:

     First, set up remote access for the root user of the client
     machine on the remote machine. This is done in either the
     /.rhosts or /etc/hosts.equiv files of the remote machine.
     See rhosts(5n) or hosts.equiv(5n). This allows you to
     execute the needed restore command as root on the remote
     machine.

     Second, assign the specified device (/dev/tc, /dev/rdf,
     etc.) to root on the remote machine. See assign(1).

DIAGNOSTICS
     Same as restore(8) with a few extra related to the network.

RETURN VALUE
     [0]              Rrestore was successful.

     [1]              Rrestore was unsuccessful.

     [NP_WARN]      An error warranting a warning message
                    occurred. Execution continues.

CAVEATS
     If permissions are not correct on the remote machine,
     rrestore displays cryptic remote tape server error messages.

SEE ALSO
     restore(8) and rmt(8n).
