Thank you Stelian!
I've written a script for full and incremental backup, that uses dump with
the -e option. For those who need a similar script, it's on
http://pmrb.free.fr/work/OS/backup/
Comments are welcome, it's my first Perl-script!
Cheers, Peter

P.S.: The -F option of dump-0.4b34 seems to be broken, dump-0.31 is fine.
