I created a symlink - hopefully correctly.  The original install placed backups 
in /var/lib/backuppc and I wanted to redirect them to /media/data/backuppc.  I 
created the symlink with ln -s /var/lib/backuppc /media/data/backuppc which 
created a folder named backuppc in the /media/data/ folder.  Hopefully I got 
this the right way around.

However, when I try to backup a host from the network it fails and the log 
shows:

Contents of file /var/lib/backuppc/pc/192.168.72.11/LOG.062010, modified 
2010-06-29 21:01:27

2010-06-29 21:01:20 full backup started for directory /
2010-06-29 21:01:22 Got fatal error during xfer (Unable to read 4 bytes)
2010-06-29 21:01:27 Backup aborted (Unable to read 4 bytes)

I seem to have a problem?
