Oh, I'm really hoping that I don't need to do this. I'm only backing up
about 5GB across a link that is cable modem on one end and 100Mbps on
the other end.

This guide worked well for getting my Linux clients going, however now
I'm having a problem talking to my windows client. When I do a status on
the windows client I get this:
30-Jun 07:38 jon-dir: *Console*.2008-06-30_07.38.19 Fatal error:
Authorization problem: FD "File daemon:jen" did not advertise required
TLS support.
I don't *need* to have TLS support for the windows machine as it's on my
local network, so I have two possible directions:
1) Fix the TLS problem
2) have some clients use TLS and some not, is this even possible?
