Lately, one machine has started to hang on backup.  It was a Linux machine, 
now it is a Windows 2003 Server machine that hangs.  The state of the machine 
stays at "backup in progress" but there is no network traffic and the CPU 
usage is at 100 percent, with two BackupPC_dump processes, one using slightly 
more CPU than the other but with a total of 100 percent.  I have changed the 
RsyncArgs and RsyncRestoreArgs options for "--devices" to "-D".

Backuppc Version: 2.1.2-6
Backuppc host OS: Debian 4.0 (Etch)
kernel: 2.6.12.6-xen
All packages up to date.

Today I increased XferLogLevel to 6 and ran the dump manually and got the 
following error message in a repeating loop:

  create     0         /           0
attribSet(dir=fswsoft, file=)
attribSet(dir=fswsoft, file=)
makeSpecial(/var/lib/backuppc/pc/fp2003/new//fswsoft/, 9, )
Can't open /var/lib/backuppc/pc/fp2003/new//fswsoft/ for empty output\n

Oddly, the directory /var/lib/backuppc/pc/fp2003/new did not exist but I was 
able to create it.  I do have free inodes and I forced fsck.ext3 on the 
filesystems and they were clean.

Any suggestions appreciated.

David Koski
