Hi Dominik

Although it is not an answer to your present predicament, I would say that rdiff-backup is not advisable over an unstable connection. A better strategy is to run rdiff-backup locally (preferably to a different machine) and then use rsync to mirror the rdiff-backup repository to an offsite machine using rsync with the --link-dest option. I recently posted on this mailing list an example of how to do this. Problems with the offsite backup process are minimised and you have a primary and secondary backup.

I have a setup of a server being backed up regularly over a DSL line to
my server at home.
After quite a bad crash I am in the process of restoring the data...

Thanks
