Sorry, I should have clarified:
The source host is a Samba server. This is data for a Windows based software
package. Would this have something to do with it? The other host, that also
has these errors, is a linux based mail server. They are just .eml files
basically, interacting with an Outlook interface.
$ rdiff-backup host_backup::/path/to/source /path/to/mirror
I have a .ssh config file that identifies host_backup to login to the remote
source. These jobs are run from crontab.

No, not a hardlink. (The 1 before the UID indicates the number of links).
Is this file from a Windows system? (.PIF is a common Windows extension)
All this data is the same when the commands are run on the original source file
as well.
Maybe some of the files giving me errors are hardlinks, but I cant imagine all
of them are.
Im running rdiff-backup locally on the mirror host getting data over SSH from
two remote sources. I get this error from both sets of backups. I have an
unprivileged user (rdiff-backup) doing the backup.
Can you send the command line that you are using, please?
Andrew
