I want to exclude the directory which contains vmware virtual machines. I have tried to exclude it on my localhost computer and on my windows laptop. But both of them are still trying to backup the directory I want to exclude.
Have I used the wrong formatting? I have searched the archives, but I still couldn't figure out what is wrong. All help appreciated. Thanks. Krsnendu dasa The location on the local host is /home/krsnendu/Virtual Machines Using the web interface I typed exactly the same as above for the variable: BackupFilesExclude In the config file it looks like this: $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = { '/home/krsnendu/Virtual Machines' => [ '' ] }; For the windows machine: The share name is Educator which maps to c:\Documents and Settings\Educator Using the web interface for BackupFilesExclude I typed: /My Documents/My Virtual Machines/* In the config file it looks like this: $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = { '/My Documents/My Virtual Machines/*' => [ '' ] }; ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
