dump problem !



Hello !
I am using script as below to back up my filesystems. But when I start
to backup process, I am taking the message below  with no backup. I know
that I am "rewind"ing the tape with "mt -f /dev/nst0 rewind" command
before the backup operation, and
the dat capacity is 4 GB (my filesystem is about 350 MB large). What is
the reason of this problem ?

My script :
  mt -f /dev/nst0 rewind

  #dump 0uf /dev/st0 /home/umut
  #/sbin/dump 0uf /dev/nst0 /usr/local/web2/webusers
  /sbin/dump 0ufn /dev/nst0 /usr/local/web2

  mt -f /dev/nst0 weof
  mt -f /dev/nst0 rewind




Output of the script :

  DUMP: No group entry for operator.
  DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Tue Dec  1 14:15:20 1998
  DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch
