Backuppc has been behaving strangely lately. This is another instance.

This is part of the log file for host steve:

2009-08-12 01:00:06 full backup started for directory /
2009-08-12 01:00:06 full backup started for directory /
2009-08-12 05:00:06 Rename /media/disk/pc/steve/new
-> /media/disk/pc/steve/151 failed 
2009-08-12 05:00:06 full backup complete, 388335 files, 0 bytes, 2
xferErrs (0 bad files, 0 bad shares, 2 other) 
2009-08-12 05:00:06 full backup 151 complete, 388335 files, 0 bytes, 2
xferErrs (0 bad files, 0 bad shares, 2 other)

Apart from the fact that the backup seems to have started twice (Maybe
just logged twice?) everything looks OK but then

In the server log file I get this:

2009-08-12 01:00:06 Started full backup on steve (pid=2644, share=/)

followed by 100,000+ of the same error on different files

What is going on here?

Thanks,
Steve
