Thanks for the prompt reply!
I was worried that might be the only fix. Yes, I am going to be relying on this for reliable backups (admittedly it's only a home environment), so it sounds like that might be the only option. Do you know if there's any easy way to backup and restore config of an individual host (I'm thinking specifically of network configs here)? It doesn't take much to configure from scratch, but thought I'd ask since I was here, and see if I could save myself the pain!
