Simply , all the guyz agreed on one point that works to solve the problem,

Create a /.rhosts file and add the target ip's that will access the media
machine.

  Gurus,

  I have attached an external tape drive to my machine [Eliant 820] , I can do
a local ufsdump , but when I try to do this from other machine , i.e. I need
to ufsdump the var partition of server X , it gives me the following error :

  1- I telnet to the machine that I need to copy data from and issue the
following command,
  ufsdump 0cful 10.10.10.10:/dev/rmt/1 /var
    DUMP: permission denied
    DUMP: Cannot connect to tape host `10.10.10.10'
    DUMP: The ENTIRE dump is aborted.

  Please note that I can do ufsdump 0cful /dev/rmt/1 with no problem ont he
same machine.

  Regards,
  Ali Almutawa
