Hello,
I am a very happy user of backuppc and take this opportunity to give my
congratulations for this outstanding software. I have implemented backuppc
in my home network (2 WinXP home boxes + Kuduntu laptop).
The programs sits on an Ubuntu 6.10 box and I am using version 2.12 and
rsyncd for the pcs. I am using the programs for a couple of weeks only and
still learn it, and have a lot more to learn (archiving, restore... etc).
But what I saw is that there are many errors in the error.log for files too
long coming from directories that I explicitly excluded !?!
In my config.pl for the PCs
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = ['/WINDOWS/Temp', '/Documents and
Settings/Administrateur/Local Settings/Temporary Internet Files',
'/pagefile.sys'];
In the Xferlog for that PC:
Send exclude: /WINDOWS/Temp
So it looks like only the first directory is sent to be excluded but none of
the others?
And then down below many errors ... failed, file name too long for files....
in the second directory I excluded in my list above, i.e. the Temporary
Internet files.
I must say I did try without the [ ] brackets and this makes no change. I
tried without space after the coma: no change. I tried without comas but
then backuppc signaled an error in the config.pl file at the line of
exclusions.
Any ideas?
Thank you very much in advance
Guy
