Hi, I maintain the rdiff-backup port on FreeBSD but am not willing to

old_stable versions (which work better at the moment than 1.0)
Also calling 1.0 stable is a bit "poor" as

Hi there,
I am backing up 41GB of data and due to a netowrk error my stream was
interrupted. is there any way to continue this halted backup?
the error message I am seeing is:
--- snip ---
# ./backup.sh
Fatal Error: Bad rdiff-backup-data dir on destination side
The rdiff-backup data directory
When I give the option do not create meta-files, is that the solution?
Thanks
Ivo

O.K., dean, I followed your advice, which seemed to work. The command
took about eight hours to process and ended with no message.
So, is that a good thing, bad thing, or too soon to tell?

Hello,
I'm new to the list (and actually never post in mailing lists), so
excuse me if I make a mistake or something.
I've searched the archives for my 'problem', to no avail. The older

me any good results either.
