Whoops, this email has been sitting in my Drafts folder for about a week.
 :-)  Better late than never, I guess.

@Les: Ahhh, now I see what you mean by, "especially if you intend to
schedule the runs with cron eventually."  I had everything working perfectly
via the web GUI, but then nothing worked via cron.  The web GUI
automatically calls my Pre and Post scripts for me.  Gonna have to tweak my
cron job to do the same, I guess!

@Mike: Thanks for that tip about -z 0.  I didn't realize I was compressing
twice, and this change certainly speeds things up a bit.

@Anyone else using Amazon S3 via s3fs <http://code.google.com/p/s3fs/>: I
was able to work around the error in the original post by renaming the file,
then closing the connection to Amazon (i.e., umount the share), and finally
reopening the connection (i.e., mounting it again) before beginning to write
the archive.
