afaik, rdiff-backup cannot handle unix domain sockets.
in most cases, it doesn´t give any sense to back them up, anyway. most
applications will (re-)create those files at runtime.
try the following commandline option:
--exclude-sockets
Exclude all socket files.

Hello,
I just decided to switch to rdiff-back from rsync for our lab's data.
First of all, I like the incremental way of backup things. Second,
rdiff-back claim to be able to back up all the information on a Mac OS X
file system.
However I am having some problems. I did not do a thorough test,
