Backups

I've run into an odd situation with one of my Xen hosts. Backups run through the browser work fine. When they are executed through the scheduler, they fail with a message

"xxx.com Failed to create destination directory : Time -"

and

"Backing up xxx.com to /home/backup/xxx.com.gz on SSH server xxx.com as root .. .. backup failed : Failed to create destination directory : Timeout connecting"

I'm not sure where to go with this. I run into a similar issue on the same server within a CentOS guest where something simple like pflogsumm when run through the scheduler returns all empty responses but if I manually click on it through Virtualmin it runs fine. I don't know if I've screed up an environmental variable or what.

Suggestions?

Steffan,

Drop me a line over Skype when you have a sec. I'd like to do a screen sharing session with you to make sure you have things setup correctly. It's quite possible there may be a bug in the code somewhere, but I'd like to eliminate this before forwarding the inquiry upward for review.

Best Regards,

Things have changed now. It is backing them up BUT now it's reporting 0 bytes. That's my next thing to figure out.
