Ok, here's a snippet of my terminal of what I tried (still not working
as far as I can tell):
$ ls -1 /var/mysql/
amavis
atmail
[.............]
mysql.sock
rcm
test
vicestats
$ ls -1 /Volumes/Backup320/var/mysql/
amavis
atmail
[.............]
mysql.sock
rcm
test
vicestats
$ ls -1a /tempp/
.
..
$ sudo rdiff-backup -v5 -r 1B /Volumes/Backup320/var/mysql/ /tempp/mysql

Does it have to do with those ACL errors/warnings? Let me know if I
should try something else. Also, does -r 3D mean _exactly_ 3 days ago
from the second/minute/hour you run rdiff-backup? or does it mean the
closest backup that ran 3 days ago?
