This seems to be a problem related to backupninja only. >>I also tried removing /home/backupschizo/schizo/ and then retrying >>rdiff-backup with the usage given by backupninja.

The *fatal* error was indeed gone when I ran rdiff-backup directly, and a backup was really created (at last!). I'm still stuck with two warnigs now, but these are not related to rdiff-backup. Thanks for your help (this goes to Ben, too). >>I'm also wondering how or whether it is possible to use rdiff-backup on >>a different port than 22? > > yeah, use --remote-schema, or use a .ssh/config entry which looks > something like: > > host foohost-otherport > port NNNN > hostname foohost > > then backup using foohost-otherport::/baz/bat wow, this is tricky, but I'm glad it's possible. Thanks for the heads up. On a side note, which is slightly OT: When I sent my first email to this mailing list, I addressed it to rdiff-backup-users at lists d0t nongnu d0t org instead of rdiff-backup-users at nongnu d0t org Instead of having my email delivered or returning it to me, the mail server is bumping my email around on its hard disk since then, still trying to deliver it.
