 * I had one job set up that sent a few backups to FTP just fine and then it stopped.
   For whatever reason it didn’t return error logs or anything, so I set up a new
   job.
 * The new job successfully created a backup, BUT for whatever reason the job is
   still running, constantly pinging the server.
 * These lines are appearing in the log over and over and over and over:
 * [08-Oct-2014 20:37:46] Connected to FTP server: XXXXXX
    [08-Oct-2014 20:37:46]
   FTP client command: USER XXXXXX [08-Oct-2014 20:37:46] FTP server response: User
