I loved my time running backups on HPUX that I scrubbed all references 
to it from my resume.  No dump.  Seems like tar didn't like to give 
out a list of the files it backed up.  The OS had really wierd 
partition naming schemes.  CDE.  None of the shells could figure out 
the correct terminal stuff ...
