You have in your disklist: > localhost work/04 /backup/PlanC3/bf381/docs/work { I am not sure but I would not use something like "work/04" as diskname. Edit to something like: my.host.my.domain work04 /backup/PlanC3/bf381/docs/work { (get rid of the "/" in "work/04"). -- Does any DLE run through here?
