Installed on Windows XP and works like a charm except for a few things.

It transfers data very slow, like 200 kbyte/sec, and there are 100 Mbit  
between the BB Server and the BB Client. The BB process only uses a few 
procent of the cpu, on both ends, any ideas?

And one more thing, if I dont comment the line below out in the 
bbackupd.conf file it wont start and gives me the error below:
# CommandSocket = bbackupd/bbackupd.sock
-----------------------------
SECURITY WARNING: This platform cannot check the credentials of 
connections to the command socket. This is a potential DoS security problem.
Remove the CommandSocket directive from the bbackupd.conf file if 
bbackupctl is not used.
-----------------------------
Dont know if I'm doing any thing wrong, but it works if I comment it out....
