Hi Chris,

This version is compiled with VS2003 from the trunk source of Sunday.
bbackupd was running (not in service mode, but just in a Dos-box), so I
could see what was happening.
The backup mode was snapshot, so I had to use the bbackupctl command to
issue a sync command to bbackupd. As soon as I issue that command the
error appears. The errors (very very many flashing down the screen, all
the same) are seen in the bbackupd window and when I kill that process
bbackupctl repeats that error one time.

I hope this is all information needed.

Cheers,

Roy
