thanks -- when i saw those in my excludes list last night just before posting i though "hmmm. i'll bet i don't need those". i think they're left over from before i added --one-file-system. (which was probably 12 or 13 years ago.) i also noticed i'm not using RsyncExtraArgs, which would be cleaner and safer. paul =---------------------- paul fox, p...@foxharp.boston.ma.us (arlington, ma, where it's 60.4 degrees) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
