Stephan,

Given this error, and especially since one client is failing and three
are working, I would be suspicious of the failing client's hardware
(probably RAM or hard disk). Are all of your clients backing up to one
server? What is the setup here?

CRC is the Cyclic Redundancy Check and is a way of checking the
integrity of a data stream.

Were there any other messages logged from rdiff-backup? Perhaps in the
rdiff-backup-data/error_log files?

Thanks for testing 1.1.12, by the way!
