Hello list:
I'm using rdiff v1.0.4, pushing a backup to the remote server (running v1.0.5) using the following commands:

rdiff-backup --print-statistics --exclude '**tmp' --exclude '**mp3' --exclude '**dat' --exclude '**exe' --include /home/'*'/.profile/Application'*'/Qualcomm --include /home/'*'/.profile/Desktop --include /home/'*'/.profile/My'*' --exclude /home/'*'/.profile --include /home/'*'/profile/Application'*'/Qualcomm --include /home/'*'/profile/Desktop --include /home/'*'/profile/My'*' --exclude /home/'*'/profile --exclude /home/'*'/.'**' --include /home --include /var --include /root --include /etc --exclude / / root@<server_name>::/home/backups/dv
rdiff-backup --remove-older-than 2M root@<server_name>::/home/backups/dv

The backup seems to be working, but I get the traceback errors (below). I had to change the system and hw clock settings recently as the origin server was set to six days ahead. From the time out of bounds error, it seems to be related. Any way to solve this dilemma for rdiff? I tried re-running the commands above with the --force option, did not change the results.

Thanks,
   ~bob
