Hi there, I was using the following script on a cron job to invoke
rdiff-backup.  It worked once, then failed because it couldn't find file
"esystems".  Now if I try to invoke it again to continue the aborted backup
I get simply:

Error: Too many arguments given
See the rdiff-backup manual page for instructions

The script is here:

#!/bin/sh

BACKUP="rdiff-backup --remote-schema '/bin/netcat %s 2711' "
REMOTE="butler.office.bytemark.co.uk::/backup/geri"

$BACKUP \
  --resume-window 21600  \
  --exclude-device-files  \
  --exclude-other-filesystems \
  --exclude "/.*\.o(bj)?$"  \
  --exclude "/.*\.class$"  \
  --exclude "/\.xvpics$"  \
  --exclude "/.kde/share/thumbnails"  \
  --exclude "/\/\.*cache.*"  \
  --exclude "/home/mattbee/builds"  \
  --exclude "/var/cache/apt/archive/*.deb" \
  / $REMOTE

I've tried upgrading both ends to 0.11.4 from 0.10.6 to no avail-- any idea
what's wrong?  I'm using it on a Debian/unstable system at each end with
Python 2.2.

thanks,
