I was tracing the remote rdiff-backup session. It seems that it was  
reading a webalizer file, which might have changed at that exact  
moment, or could be removed to be replaced by another file (a cron  
job updates the stats). Could this result in an end of file? Could  
this be avoided?

It is sending on port 59297 - i am doing a tcpdump now. Should I  
strace the sshd pid or the rdiff-backup pid?

Any usage help? I guess:

perl Makefile
make
make install

but then what?
