Hello....
I have just discovered af very wierd pattern in my problems with boxbackup.
When I start bbackupctl manually on the client with the command
"/usr/local/bin/bbackupctl -c /etc/box_minimoni/bbackupd.conf sync" the
backup always completes successfully.
When run from my crontab as seen below, it always fails with the message:
exception Connection Protocol_Timeout (Probably a network issue between
client and server.) (7/41)
From my crontab:
0 10 * * * /usr/local/bin/bbackupctl -c /etc/box_minimoni/bbackupd.conf sync
Client OS X 10.4
Server Debian
Any thoughts ?
