Hi,

Yes, the system being backed up is over a broadband connection...fiber
actually. The system has a static IP address. The "interval" if you will,
seems to be completely random.
Do you have access to the remote machine ? Can you get at the logs on
the client box to see any relevant errors ?
Have you tried sniffing the link via tcpdump/ethereal ...etc to get a
look at the net level while this is happening ?
I'd be interested at what you find/see, as I am proposing to use
backuppc to backup a web server we want to deploy here. It will be in a
similar topology as yours.
regards
Darryl

I am not sure if this is relevant in your case, but the last
line of your post reminded me of a problem I had at one point.
You mention below that you will have to contact their ISP -
is the PC you are backing up remote over a broadband
connection? Does the client PC or their router get its' IP
address from the ISP's DHCP server? What is the interval the
ISP drops the connection and hands out a new IP address?

I hate to reply to my own post, but I found another bit of useful
information while doing more troubleshooting.
During the backup run, Rsyncd + Cygrunsrv on the client
occupies it's
standard 100% CPU on one of the processors in the system.
Kernel time
is understandably high, given the disk I/O that's involved.
After the
backup hangs, from the servers perspective, and the dump
thread exits,
CPU usage on the client continues as if the backup was
still running.
I guess this further points to network problems. I guess
I'll have to
contact their ISP.

On one of my hosts, I'm having constant problems trying to
complete a
full or incremental backup run. I always get these

First up, I'm new to backuppc, which I think is a great
piece of
software btw, so I hope I don't lead you astray.
I'll watch my step. :^)
