First off, send your bbackupd.conf file to the list. Then let us know  
what is missing from the backups. Are you using 'ExtendedLogging'?  
What OS is your problem-client running on? Is this problem across all  
your clients, or is it just one client?

With that info, we should be able to figure out at least a starting  
point for tracking down your problem.

Thanks,
