Ok, I did a "vos dump -id user.xxxx -file /tmp/backup -localauth -verbose" on
a users homedirectory from a client only machine - unfortunately with the
same effect, no output, no dump file has been created, also no core dump :(

These are from the

Thanks!

I'll try to bind the DB interface to the primary eth0 instead of the faked
