"stop all" never seems to work.
I need to abort all jobs still going in the morning when users start working.

My nightly jobs are not running if there is an (ostensibly) running job,
stuck overnight. I have first wakeup at 01:00 after this cron job is 
supposed to "unblock" stuck jobs:-

> From: Cron Daemon <[email protected]>
> To: [email protected]
> Date: 01.05.2008 00:11
> Subject: Cron <root@hawksvr5> su -s /bin/bash -c 
> "/usr/share/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_serverMesg stop all backuppc 1" backuppc

> Got reply: ok: no backup was pending or running 

But that was untrue. I had to manually cancel the backup of 
hawkgrove-lp3 in the morning:-

> 2008-04-30 13:41:37 User backuppc requested backup of hawkgrove-lp3 
> (hawkgrove-lp3)
> 2008-04-30 13:41:45 Started full backup on hawkgrove-lp3 (pid=19044, 
> share=full)

> backuppc (backoff=)
> 2008-05-01 08:39:32 Backup canceled on hawkgrove-lp3 (fileListReceive failed)
> 2008-05-01 08:39:32 Running 2 BackupPC_nightly jobs from 0..15 (out of 0..15)
> 2008-05-01 08:39:32 Running BackupPC_nightly -m 0 127 (pid=7958)
> 2008-05-01 08:39:32 Running BackupPC_nightly 128 255 (pid=7959)

All we have in the log for hawkgrove-lp3 is:-

> 2008-04-30 13:41:45 full backup started for directory full
> 2008-05-01 08:39:31 Aborting backup up after signal INT
> 2008-05-01 08:39:32 Got fatal error during xfer (fileListReceive failed)

It had been powered off at about 17:15, thopugh it might have gone into 
suspended mode soon after 13:41
There should have been several backups of other clients at 04:12, 05:00, 
06:00, and 07:00 which have been skipped too.

How can I "unblock" ANY backup which is still in "fileListReceive" when 
the connection is lost?
