reboot client or re-install nic driver

These 2 helped me.

1. reboot client [ if it is safe to do so]

2. re-install/update NIC driver

Is this a timeout issue? Your

Is this a timeout issue?

Your not backing up directories with 10/100 thousands of files and small ones at that?

I have had timeouts/socket problems when this was the issue.

bpbkar logs should be reviewed at VERBOSE = 5 level on the client

Also use the Technote that describes how to use bpbkar_path_tr touch file
