Thanks. What I am wondering about is if it is possible to get a bit more information out of BackupPC wrt why a signal is sent. I think that would help. For example I am wondering why I just get "process killed by user signal", is it possible to log a bit more from the process sending the signal? Also, BackupPC starts up two processes when a backup starts, but I always get one of them defunct. Like this: [ssh] <defunct> backuppc 6478 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? Z 20:41 0:00 [BackupPC_dump] <defunct> Why is one of the processes just defunct?
