This is a bit odd...
Just trying to cover all the bases.. Couple of questions:
* Does this happen when backing up a specific file? Or a specific
time during the run (e.g.: always 20 minutes into the run)?
* What happens when you run manually at the time that the cron job
was failing?
* Is the user the same on the cron job, as on the manual run?
* Is the cron problem related to a particular file? (Debug build
should tell you the file being backed up)
Thanks,
