When I perform a rsync with backup I get 100's of:

make_bak_dir mkdir "/export/giger.back.....eary/java/weka/gui" failed: File exists
make_bak_dir mkdir "/export/giger.back....ary/java/weka/gui" failed: File exists
make_bak_dir mkdir "/export/giger.back...ary/java/weka/gui" failed: File exists
.
.
.
My backup command is:


rsync -q --backup --backup-dir=/export/giger.backup/share-`date +%Y-%m-%d` --exclude="/javadocs/" --exclude="/tmp/" --exclude="*.class" --delete -ar giger::export/share.giger /export

So I wasn't expecting to get lots of output. My cron entry now mails me errors whenever I backup.

cheers
