Hello,

There are two ways to accomplish this.  If you are wanting to exclude only
"one" pattern the in your dumptype add the following:

options exclude ./*/raw

OR if you wish to use more then one pattern add the following to your
dumptype:

options exclude-list "/path/to/file/"

Where "/path/to/file" is the path on the client that contains a file with
each pattern excluded on a seperate line.  I wrote a doc covering this
that can be downloaded from cvsweb at the sourceforge site, under the docs
subdirectory.
