Hi,
I have been trying to use rdiff-backup on a Linux system to back things up
to a SMB/CIFS share on some remote server. I have been getting the same
errors regardsless of the rdiff-backup version I'm using. I also tried
using CIFS versus the regular SMBFS. Searching the mailing list led me to
find this thread. I'd appreciate any input. Here's a listing of the error
with the latest stable version of rdiff-backup, followed by my system
info:
