So, why, is Retrospect *not* backing up the files?
On a folder I had where this was a problem (I couldn't back up the
files within the folder), I deleted the "finder.dat" file:
The files (and subfolders) within that folder were then backed up sucessfully.
*And* I could open every single file within that folder.
What am I missing?
