Apologies for the relatively long email, but I figure it's better to give too much information than not enough. I've run into a bit of difficulty backing up a large directory tree that has me not being able to do a successful backup in over a month now. I'm attempting to back up about 70GB over the Internet with a 1 MB/sec connection (the time it takes doesn't really bother me, just want to do a full backupand then run incrementals all the time). However, the transfer alwaystimes out with signal=ALRM.ALRM should mean the server's $Conf{ClientTimeout} expired. You mayneed to make it much longer. The time is supposed to mean inactivity butsome circumstances make it the total time for a transfer to complete.signal=PIPE means the connection broke or the client side quit unexpectedly.
Although the ALRM and PIPE signals are probably technically correct it might be clearer to use different terms/explanations in the interface. I have the feeling not everyone understands these signals.
