After further investigation, I believe my file exclusions are not working in
backuppc. I checked some random machine transfer logs and I see lots of
entries for /WINDOWS/...
In my config.pl this (and other) directories should be exuded. I am using
SMB to do backups (xp machines mostly):
Do I need anything besides this: ?
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {
'*' => [
'/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Temporary Internet Files/',
'/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Temp/',
'/Documents and Settings/*/NTUSER.DAT',
'/Documents and Settings/*/ntuser.dat.LOG',
'/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Application
Data/Microsoft/Windows/UsrClass.dat',
'/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Application
Data/Microsoft/Windows/UsrClass.dat.LOG',
'/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Application
Data/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/*/Cache/',
'/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Application
Data/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/*/OfflineCache/',
'/Documents and Settings/*/Recent/',
'*.lock',
'Thumbs.db',
'IconCache.db',
'Cache',
'cache',
'/WINDOWS/',
'/RECYCLER/',
'/MSOCache/',
'/System Volume Information/',
'/AUTOEXEC.BAT',
'/BOOTSECT.BAK',
'/CONFIG.SYS',
'/hiberfil.sys',
'/pagefile.sys',
'/WINNT/'
]
};
