For a couple of days it seemed to work.
Today it froze. When I tried to clsoe it, it said that it could not be done.
I could not find a way to kill sbackup. It did not show-up as an active process.
Below is the log. When you look at the last line, there is no indication of failure or completion.
So I assume that sbackup "froze" at that point.
The progress bar, stays frozen on "backup being prepared".
