hi there..
just installed rdiff-backup on a couple machines (one on server 10.5.6
python 2.5.1 and one on server 10.4.11 python 2.3) -- everything
worked fine upon first backup - but is throwing some errors on 4 files

Hi Sphen,
Strange error ... Each time, it comes when rdiff-backup is asking for
a list of the extended attributes on those 4 files.
What does `file` and `ls -...@e` report on each of those files?

I've tried both versions. The cygwin version had path too long errors, and I
haven't been able to get the native version to act as the remote machine.
I'll provide tracebacks next time I have the opportunity to run things.
Thanks for the quick response.

Windows to Linux works fine with the native binary, Linux to Windows is
where I'm having problems. Is there any way to start the native windows
client as a server and back up to it? I've tried using SSH, and I can run
the native Windows client (as opposed to the Cygwin version), but it
complains
