I ran into a similar error when I switched backups from rsync to tar to try to 
deal with a persistent timeout issue with one of my hosts.  I’m still 
troubleshooting (in another thread on this list), but it’s starting to look 
like a network/interface issue to me.

Yeah, I searched and saw your post with no response.  Quite honestly I didn't 
know how to reply specifically to your message so I mailed my own with your 
same title.  So, sorry if I did things "wrong".

Oddly enough, it seems to only really happen to one or two of my client 
machines (my machine specifically being one of them).

I too am having this issue again with version 4.1.3 fresh from GIT.  I did 
check the version of the file in /bin and it does show as being from 4.1.3.

Anything I can run to help you diagnose the problem?

I'm the original poster on this, and yours is the only response.

Meanwhile, I have backups running continuously here and they never, EVER 
complete.  Every 24 hours, the current one gets killed with this same error and 
cleaned up, then a new one starts.
