I'm trying to configure an amanda server/client to use GNUTAR with exclude 
lists. GNUTAR works great, but the excludes don't!

The basic configuration is like this:

define dumptype global {
    comment "Global definitions"
index yes
compress client best
#maxdump 2
holdingdisk true
record yes
}

define dumptype bugs {
    global
    comment "Backup incremental, remoto, comp best"
    holdingdisk yes
    program "GNUTAR"
    priority medium
    exclude list "/usr/local/etc/amanda/exclude.gtar"
    compress client best
    dumpcycle 5
}

And the disklist contains this:

bugs /space bugs -1 hme0

in bugs I have the file /usr/local/etc/amanda/exclude.gtar:

martin@bugs:~ > cat /usr/local/etc/amanda/exclude.gtar
./pruebas/
./amanda/
martin@bugs:~ >

But it's not excluding those 2 directories, and the problem is that the dumps 
are growing to big.

What can be wrong?
