This sounds vaguely familiar, perhaps like: http://www.mail-archive.com/backuppc-de...@lists.sourceforge.net/msg00321.html but I don't know if that had a resolution. It doesn't seem common, though. > The backup always stops doing anything right after lstat of the last > file in /pictures/agate/shared/pictures/0216/2987/.

Backuppc is going to insist on protocol 28 which, I think, means it has to get the entire directory tree before starting the comparison. > I'm quite stumped. Any ideas? Is your client rsync binary up to date with any distribution updates? Maybe it is just a bug that has already been fixed. Also, I thought at one point you said this was only happening with incrementals.
