Ray,
Sorry about the delay in replying. I'm not sure why those two directories
are still around; BackupPC_backupDelete didn't report any errors. It also
didn't delete the XferLOG.[56].z files.
It looks like #3 was correctly deleted, and XferLOG.3.z too.
What's in those directories? Are they owned by the backuppc user?
