Thanks it looks like it was winexe, for whatever reason if run directly 
from the shell it would work 100% but as soon as it was run from 
backuppc it wouldnt exit, I just backrounded winexe now and ran a 
cleanup in DumpPostCmd too kill the winexe process after the backup was 
complete and its now working.
