Lchown Errors in Rsnapshot Log.: msg#00024

sysutils.backup.rsnapshot.general

Subject: Lchown Errors in Rsnapshot Log.

Hello,

I am getting this error for many files from rsnapshot log:
[08/Jul/2006:12:10:25] Could not lchown() symlink
"/backups2/hourly.0/darthik.com/var/spool/postfix/usr/lib/zoneinfo/localtime"

Some pertinent configuration settings:
# LINUX USERS: Be sure to uncomment "cmd_cp". This gives you extra
features.
# EVERYONE ELSE: Leave "cmd_cp" commented out for compatibility.
#
# Note: Linux users with gnu cp/coreutils version > 5.3, should leave
# cmd_cp commented out, since cp fails to create destination directories
# with a trailing slash for versions 5.3 or later.
#
# See the README file or the man page for more details.
#
#cmd_cp /bin/cp

# If your version of rsync supports --link-dest, consider enable this.
# This is the best way to support special files (FIFOs, etc)
cross-platform.
# The default is 0 (off).
# In Debian GNU cp is available which is superior to link_dest, so
it should be
# commented out (disabled).
#
link_dest 1

I have coreutils > 5.3, so I commented out cmd_cp and I am using link_dest.

Here are some details of the system I am running:

Debian Linux, testing branch.
uname -a
Linux nero 2.6.8-2-686-smp #1 SMP Tue Aug 16 12:08:30 UTC 2005 i686
GNU/Linux
rsnapshot -v
rsnapshot 1.2.9


Any help on fixing this problem would be great, or information on the
possible future problems.
Thanks.
