Dear Dominic, Thanks for your response!
Some of these files are from inactive users and I’m quite sure their files weren’t changed during the rdiff backup! Did you read the email from Mike Fleetwood? These are similar error messages, allegedley caused by retrieving wrong hid and gid on NFS file systems. I’m using a remote filesystem as well, SSHFS, over here! I have applied this patch and running a backup at this very moment. Unfortunately it’s taking quite long because I had to interrupt a previous backup and rdiff is busy with ‘regressing’.
