This sort of thing has been reported from time to time. Somehow it looks like BackupPC_tarExtract gets out of sync with the archive being produced by smbclient (I assume you are running smbclient). Would you be willing to run some tests? That's the best way to proceed short of me getting access to your machine. The first test would be to see if running smbclient piped into tar tvf also gets messed up; if so that would point to some bug in smbclient... Second, I would add some debug code to BackupPC_tarExtract that you would run and send me the debug output. It will probably take several iterations. It would be helpful if you could find the smallest backup that shows the problem. Let's take this off line.
