I'm using BackupPC 3.1.0 to backup about ~100 hosts of different sizes, 
and so far I've been able to deal with almost all kinds of limitations 
or problems.

Lately, however, I'm not able to backup one host. It is a Windows 2003 
host with rsyncd. The "share" contains only a few, but rather large 
files (up to about 15 GB).

BackupPC fails on transferring a file which is just 768 MB big (the file 
does not change on the Windows side, as it is a read-only shadow copy 
snapshot):

Unable to read 4751360 bytes from 
/srv/backuppc-data/pc/naveval-sql1/new//ftDrive/RStmp got=4177920, 
seekPosn=377503744 (23040,290,23332,381681664,382264064)

seekPosn=377503744 (23040,290,23332,381681664,382264064)

[repeats dozens of times]


What's interesting, when I look into "new" directory, the file is 
already 5510 MB and grows!

Anyone has seen such a problem before?
