what does 'file' think the file is - i.e. what does
file u1_l0_04-29-09_md1.dump
u1_l0_04-29-09_md1.dump: data
Which I did think was odd. I had also tried
bzcat u1_l0_04-29-09_md1.dump
bzcat: u1_l0_04-29-09_md1.dump is not a bzip2 file.
but I didn't remember if dump might have it's own headers before the
compressed data.
The dump is compressed. What was the command line you used to create
the dump file?
Have you tried using
restore tzvf u1_l0_04-29-09_md1.dump
Problem solved. Thanks to everyone who gave me suggestions. Turns out
that I had encrypted the backup with a GPG key, but didn't put that info
into the filename. Backup reads just fine when I pipe it through gpg
and then to restore.
