Wanda,
Here is our default list that we install on all Mac clients.
It's almost certainly not exhaustive and I'd be interested
to have any comments and/or futher additions to the exclude list.
A point of note - the weird � character is the ASCii representation
of CHR(196) and on the mac looks like a leant-over f ( I'm told it's
the florint character ).
I too am no Mac guru but am told that a wildcarded exclusion of all
Caceh folders is not advisable as some Cache folders on the Mac hold
important app/user data.
Exclude "...:Desktop DB"
Exclude "...:Desktop DF"
Exclude "...:Desktop"
Exclude "...:Trash:...:*"
Exclude "...:Wastebasket:...:*"
Exclude "...:VM Storage"
Exclude "...:Norton FileSaver Data"
Exclude "...:Norton VolumeSaver Data"
Exclude "...:Norton VolumeSaver Index"
Exclude.dir "...:System Folder:Preferences:cache-cache"
Exclude.dir "...:System Folder:Preferences:Netscape Users:...:Cache
�"
Exclude.dir "...:System Folder:Preferences:Netscape �:Cache �"
Exclude.dir "...:System Folder:Preferences:Explorer:Temporary Files"
Exclude "...:Temporary Items:...:*"
Exclude "...:...:TheFindByContentIndex"
Exclude "...:aaaaaaa?????*"
Exclude "...:...:TSM Sched*"
Exclude "...:...:TSM Error*"
