[Sunhelp] BRU on Solaris

[Vinay Bharel]

Hi,

Does anyone here use BRU for backups.  I tried it for the first time today
and got the below errors after the backup was done.  I was able to supress
them by using -A or adding "noautoscan" in /etc/brutab but they still
bother me.

I am using an Exabyte 8mm drive mounted remotely.  I am using rsh to
connect to it.

Also what do you guys think about BRU overall?  Is it reliable.

Thanks for you help.
