Hi, I have an issue when trying to exclude hidden files and folders on a Ubuntu 9.10 server using the 'tar' method. Based on my configuration, backuppc claims to run
/usr/bin/env LC_ALL=C /bin/tar -c -v -f - -C /home/backup --totals -- exclude='./.*' . but the hidden files and folders do not get excluded, see log below. When I run the EXACT SAME COMMAN manually on the same server under the backuppc user, it works just fine. Any help is appreciated Thanks, Beat Running: /usr/bin/env LC_ALL=C /bin/tar -c -v -f - -C /home/backup --totals -- exclude='./.*' . full backup started for directory /home/backup Xfer PIDs are now
