If have followed the instructions for unattended rdiff-backup
(http://arctic.org/~dean/rdiff-backup/unattended.html). However, I get the
following error when I try to do a backup:
rdiff-backup --exclude /tmp/'*' --exclude /var/tmp/'*' --exclude /mnt
--exclude /nfs --exclude /proc / mirror-backup::/storage6/primary-backup
Traceback (most recent call last):

I'm using rdiff-back version 0.12.7, Red Hat EL ES3 on the primary box, Red
Hat 8.0 on the mirror box.
