Backuppc 3.2  beta. (the nmblookup failure also occurs on 3.1 stable  
in the same manor)

When I attempt to view error logs I get a bunch of character spew. It  
looks like it's not Backuppc_zcat'ing the file. I can manually do this  
and the output of the client's logfile.z is fine.


I'm also seeing failures on clients when an nmblookup is needed. (the  
same client will back up fine if I set the hostname to it's appletalk  
name, e.g. foo.local).

netbios lookups do succeed:

>  /usr/bin/nmblookup foo
> querying 17369-baker on 10.9.22.255
> 10.9.22.31 foor<00>


Log output looks like this after failure:

> /usr/local/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_zcat XferLOG.bad.z
> full backup started for directory /
> Running: /usr/bin/ssh -q -x -l backuppc foo /usr/bin/sudo /Network/

> the prior one (got 0 and 0 files versus 0)

If you notice, it's using the hostname not the ip. If I manually  
execute BackupPC_dump it shows that it finds the ip correctly, but  
then reverts to using the hostname:
