I don't think a switch port or other network issue is at fault. The
backups are run over a VPN connection which is quite stable and we're
backing up other clients (Linux however) over the same connection
without any trouble at all.
Would this RAM shortage occur on the client or the server?

Would you do this by adding to $Conf{BackupFilesOnly} after each
successful run or by gradually extending $Conf{RsyncShareName} ?
Thanks,
