I have previously reported pretty regular SMB backup failures with the above error before. Some indications on the list were that this was thought to have been fixed in 4.1.3.

However, I'm still seeing it on around half of my backups, both incrementals and fulls. They run for a few minutes over 24 hours, and are then killed and restarted. Often, they fail a second or even third consecutive time. Once in a while, backups succeed--incrementals in just a few minutes.

Server is running Fedora 25 (Linux osprey 4.11.6-201.fc25.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 20 20:21:11 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux). BackupPC is BackupPC-4.1.3-1.fc25.x86_64, as packaged in the Hobbes repo.

Is there any more info I can provide?  Thanks.
