1.)    Testing server started by:  ssh -C host_backup rdiff-backup --server
Server OK
 
2.)    File ACCPACPL.PIF
  Type reg
  Size 967
  ModTime 912875522
  Uid xxx
  Uname source_username
  Gid yyy
  Gname source_groupname
  Permissions 486
 
Looks like I’m missing my digest
 
3.)    Yes, run on the mirror side.  I run it like 
rdiff-backup –verify /path/to/mirror/  
Is this correct?  Maybe that’s my problem?  I just couldn’t find any usage 
information.
 
Do I have to enable the SHA1 digest storage somehow?

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.
 
Well, I have just tested that configuration and it worked for me, so ..
 
1) What does:
 
rdiff-backup --test-server host_backup::/path/to/source
 
report?
 
2) If you open /path/to/mirror/rdiff-backup-data/mirror_metadata.*.snapshot.gz
 
where * is the latest mirror, please look for the "File ACCPACPL.PIF" line, and 
then send the block of text that follows (that is, the metadata entry for that 
file, which is one of the files which is not having its SHA1 written). This 
information will be very helpful.
 
3) How are you using the --verify command? (You are running on the backup 
destination, right?)
 
 
Andrew
