Hi All,

I've been using BackupPC for several years.  I've used it at home, for
clients, and at my current full-time employer.  It's awesome software -
I love it.

Lately, backuppc has been unable to backup my Fedora 10 machine at home
(backuppc is running on the same box, and the backuppc package is
provided by Fedora 10).  More precisely, the backup moves along nicely
until it hits /home, where the backup just hangs.  If I run the backup
from the command line, this is the log output I see:

full backup started for directory /home; updating partial #147
started full dump, share=/home
Running: /usr/bin/sudo /usr/bin/rsync --server --sender --numeric-ids
--perms --owner --group -D --links --hard-links --times
--block-size=2048 --recursive --checksum-seed=32761 --one-file-system
--ignore-times . /home/
Xfer PIDs are now 11778
xferPids 11778
Got remote protocol 30
Negotiated protocol version 28
Checksum caching enabled (checksumSeed = 32761)
Got checksumSeed 0x7ff9
 ^CfileListReceive() failed
Done: 0 files, 0 bytes
Got fatal error during xfer (fileListReceive failed)
Backup aborted by user signal
Not saving this as a partial backup since it has fewer files than the
prior one (got 20245 and 0 files versus 20245)
dump failed: fileListReceive failed
link ranbir

I cancelled the backup at the point where backuppc output the line "Got
checksumSeed 0x7ff9" because backuppc didn't do anything for over an
hour.

I've been having this same issue for a month now.  I've tried debugging,
but nothing so far has helped.  I had 146 successful backups before this
issue came up.

Does anyone know what's going on?

Regards,

Ranbir
