Anybody here? ;-) The list seems to be a bit quiet. If this is the wrong
place for this report, someone please tell me the correct one :-)
 
I feel I did not provide enough information to get rid of the below bug. So,
here you go:
1.       I am using rdiff 1.3.3 for a local backup on a windows server 2003
32bit machine. 
2.       I am using the windows release that can be downloaded on
rdiff-backup.nongnu.org as rdiff-backup-1.3.3-win32.zip.
3.       My rdiff call is: rdiff-backup --force --no-acls --no-hard-links
--print-statistics --include "D:\\/home" --include "D:\\/profile" --exclude
"D:\\/share/ElRv-Daten" --include "D:\\/share" --exclude "D:\\/**" D:\/
D:\/rd/data
4.       "Zugriff verweigert" in the below message is german for "permission
denied". When checking the folders, I found that the ACL entries are okay,
but the read-only flag on the "Eigene Bilder" folder was set. 
 
So all in all, it seems to me that rdiff cannot remove this flag from
folders. Below linked you find a similar problem with files. Next, windows
prevents rdiff from deleting a folder that is still marked "read-only".
Consecuently, Rdiff crashes. 
 
To support my concern, I can tell you that you find quite a number of „read
only folders“ on windows systems, because that windows itself uses the read
only flag on folders differently than on files: see
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/256614 . Additionally, the attribute setting
for folders may be handled different (for example, you can’t remove read
only attribute on folders just using the explorer). 
 
Any help is appreciated, really... I like rdiff and don’t want to chance the
backup system (again)... 
 
Cheers,
David
