That worked perfectly, Chris, thanks! It's catching up on the backups
now.
Is it me, or is 0.10 substantially faster than 0.09? After I restarted
the service, by the time I could get to Event Veiwer, dozens of files
had already been transfered. I don't recall that happening before. Now
that I look at it again, I guess that is the number one new feature
mentioned at:
http://boxbackup.hostworks.ca/index.php/0.10
"Optimised diffing algorithm -- massive speed improvements"
Re the 0.10 crash error, yes, I think it might have happened right
after stopping the service, but I'm not absolutely sure. My
recollection was that I thought it was odd that I was getting that
message when I had thought that I had stopped the service a while ago
(whatever "a while" means), like I might have said to myself, "I
thought I stopped that? Was that still running?" or something like
that, but I was so busy with other stuff that I didn't track it down.
Thanks! again, Chris.
