You said it best, Darren. Without history, it's an impossible question
to ask. I know we have done index recovers and maybe a scan a few times
in the past but can't recall last time? Looking at my output it looks
like the most recent date discrepancy is from 09/23/03. That's over 7
months ago so just can't recall. Would another possibility be a client
that was maybe removed from backups and then re-added and same saveset
backed up again or maybe host name switched to another machine or disk
drive replaced and data recovered? Seems unlikely as these should have
different ssids just wondering. Maybe database corruption could cause
this, too?
