Keith,

I am so embarrassed... I looked one more time at the cron script and found a typo... No reason it should not work now...

Amazing how many times I looked at it and did not see the problem.

The destination directory, server2:/backup1/data, builds and fills directories such as /bin, /usr, /etc, /var and fills them with content from serverA's root directory. The directories bin,usr,etc,var and so forth do not exist in serverA:/data only under / on serverA.

This is very odd. I've been using rdiff-backup for four years or so,
currently on about 40 servers, and I've never seen it backup directories
that weren't specified on the command line. I suggest you run it with a
very verbose setting (at least 6) and save the log to a file. Put that
log on the web somewhere and post a link to it here, and I'll look at it.
