I have been using rsnapshot on OS X for a bit now to backup my debian home
server to my external HD but have now started getting this error.

The actual limit ca be slightly less. It appears you have exceeded this limit.

If you really need names this long, rsync builds pretty easily. Change the pathname max to something you can live with rsync should stop complaining. Look for MAXPATHLEN.
