Thanks for the reply Raphael!
Here's what's weird: I don't get this error message all the time for
incremental backups, but now its starting to happen more and more often for
the same hosts that had this problem before. But sometimes incremental
backups will work (very rare though).
Also, the incremental backups are getting stuck in /home directory because
it first starts to backup the /etc directory and that directory is backed up
just fine.
Here's the last error message that I get when the incremental backup is
aborted:
*Child is aborting
Done: 352 files, 39589242 bytes
Got fatal error during xfer (aborted by signal=PIPE)
Backup aborted by user signal
*Any ideas on this?
Thanks in advance!
