Here are the contents of the backup directories on the BackupPC server:

What gives?  How can I rely on BackupPC if this kind of thing happens?  My confidence level is shaky at this point.  I looked in all the logs I can find and I see no excuse for files to be missing?  Help?

Hi,

I'm running BackupPC version 2.1.2pl1 on debian etch.  We discovered that at least one directory is not being completely backed up and I can't figure out why.

Here are the directory contents:

jeward@chimera:/usr/local$ ls -l ldap
total 20
-rwxr-x--- 1 root   root 205 2007-05-12 15:21 ADPass
-rwxr-x--- 1 root   root 193 2008-07-21 12:33 createWin
-rwxr-xr-x 1 jeward dev  465 2007-06-20 15:56 ldap2mail
-rwxr-x--- 1 root   root 977 2008-06-02 14:14 setWin
-rwxr-x--- 1 root   root 636 2008-07-24 09:44 shutdownWin

Here's the BackupPC summary for the host:
