I answered my question by changing strategies. Using a shell script,
I'm using mount_smbfs to just mount the file server shares on my BSD
server, then copying them directly over to the backup filesystem, then
unmounting.

However, if anybody has any advice on the pavuk issue, I'd be glad to
have it.

Thanks!
