Hello everybody, I have some issues with my backup destination. I'm would like to use my network hard drive StoreCenter (https://iomega-eu-en.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/iomega_eu_en.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=19354&p_sid=XRxAPuOj&p_lva=14599) trough CIFS to save my rdiff-data.
I have the following error : C:\>rdiff-backup.exe -v5 --no-hard-links f:\/ y:/rdiff/ > F:\rdiff_not_working_cifs.txt Fatal Error: Bad rdiff-backup-data dir on destination side The rdiff-backup data directory y:/rdiff/rdiff-backup-data exists, but we cannot find a valid current_mirror marker. You can avoid this message by removing the rdiff-backup-data directory; however any data in it will be lost. Probably this error was caused because the first rdiff-backup session into a new directory failed. If this is the case it is safe to delete the rdiff-backup-data directory because there is no important information in it. Here the output : Using rdiff-backup version 1.2.8 Hardlinks disabled by default on Windows Unable to import module xattr.

Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this ?
