I have tested a setup where I mount a SMB/CIFS-share (from a Windows-box) via mount.cifs (Linux ...) and then use the standard GNUtar-way of doing things, where it is possible to specify more than only one exclude-option. This works, but depends on your OS.

What is still missing is that AMANDA makes use of these new capabilities of smbclient. patches welcome ;-) -- best regards, Stefan Stefan G. Weichinger mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
