This would have been faster for me to do if the URL you gave there was an actual SVN url rather than a browser :-P. After eeplacing the plugin (and pruning a couple zero-length files from /etc/backup/ldap) I can say that it appears to be properly backing up the LDAP system now. I will watch the regular cron emails to make sure the daily warnings are gone, but otherwise I believe your fix corrected this situation. Thank you for your time and patience.

The handler has had some re-working done, and it would be good to know if it fixes your problem or not.
