I would think you could specify the hidden directory on the command line to back up the snapshot directory. It wouldnt be the matter of the backup client not getting access to the directory; the hidden directory just doesn't show up when the client is iterating thru the filesystem. -- M

Just as an FYI... It's my understanding that this scheduling problem is NOT a result of the DST changes that start this year. This risk of a missed backup job existed last spring, and the spring before that, and the spring before that... So it's nice that it's finally going to be fixed.
