Re: [rdiff-backup-users] Problem with CIFS and Hard Links

[Doug Renfrew]

Mounting options were in the original email, reproduced below. I am
using cifs with the default options. I am not sure what those are

//111.222.333.444/backup  /backup  cifs
defaults,username=backup,password=12345678 0 0

I am willing to try any test you want
