I upgraded to Lion the day it came out and was suffering every since. Bugs are everywhere and infuriating. I decided to reinstall and migrate my files and settings using Migration Assistant and TM.
Long story short - restore would barf likely because afpd would go belly up. Console would report the mount went away. So, in case someone else is in the same boat, I simply copied /c/.timemachine/<bundle> to a fat32 formatted usb disk, and did a restore from there. Went off without a hitch, decryption and all.
I'll continue to use my DUO as a TM target, but this is the first time things didn't "just work". It's unclear why or how afpd went belly up. Im thinking this has something to do with the latest RAIDiator which was suppose to address TM and Lion.
Also, I noticed afpd (even over gigE) cannot read beyond 2MB/s. However, SAMBA (CIFS) can read/write at 20MB/s. Pretty staggering.
