[Duplicity-talk] TimeOut Help?

[AJ Weber]

I'm running duplicity 0.4.9 and it seems to run fine for some of my commands (backing up different directories with identical commands, just different source/target dirs).  However, for this one, it keeps timing-out on attempting to list the existing files from the target server...

 

(some command-line and log-values changed to protect the innocent...)

 

address@hidden ~]# duplicity --verbosity 6 --encrypt-key "XXXXXXXX" --sign-key "XXXXXXXX" --scp-command 'scp -l 400 -o ConnectionAttempts=900' --include ignorecase:'/misc/nasdisk1/[u-z]*/**' --exclude /misc/nasdisk1 --archive-dir ~root/backupCache/u_z /misc/nasdisk1 scp://address@hidden/private/d1/u_z
Running 'sftp  address@hidden' (attempt #1)
sftp command: 'mkdir private/d1/u_z'
sftp command: 'cd private/d1/u_z'
sftp command: 'ls -1'
Timeout waiting for response
Running 'sftp  address@hidden' failed (attempt #1)

If I run the same ls -1 from an interactive ssh session, it returns fine...a lot of files, but fine.  Is there a timeout I should increase here, or what's the deal?  Also, possibly relevant, is the trace after the final attempt:

 

Giving up trying to execute 'sftp  address@hidden' after 5 attempts

    raise BackendException("Error running '%s'" % commandline)

Any help/pointers are much appreciated!

 

Thanks,
