Greetings everyone,

I am hoping someone can see what I am doing wrong.  I have scoured 
the list archives for an answer, but have had no luck so far.  I have
an otherwise working setup for all my *nix clients.  I am using a 
separate test configuration to troubleshoot as I can't get my Windows
clients backed up in my regular setup.

If anyone can look at this and give me a clue, I'd really appreciate it!
Please let me know if I need to provide more information.

Thanks!

Here's my configuration & log information:
