if run a xinetd on the backup-server with, e.g.:
service ftp
{
....
cps 3 60
}
(protects the backup-server against brute-force attacks)

then the incremental-backups often fails, these are
often smaller than full-backups.

reo_backup opens too many connections per second on
remote-server and the xinetd stops the ftp-server.

a good idea, would be a configurable ' make sleep
between each ftp-connection', e.g. sleep 2 (for 2
second wait).
