 If the "rmt" program is not in your path on the remote machine, you need
 to use the RMT environment variable to tell dump where the program is
 located.
 
 e.g.
 
 $ export RMT=/usr/sbin/rmt
 $ dump 0uf root@hp735c:/dev/rmt/c201d2m /var
 
 if "rmt" is in /usr/sbin on hp735c.  I don't know where it really is;
 log on to hp735c and look for it by hand.
