I am not 100% sure which is better, I prefer "Control File" ATM How about placing this directive into the Exclude{} section? Wouldn't that make more sense anyway? Maybe like that: # List of files to be backed up FileSet { Name = "MyFileSet" Include { Options { signature = MD5 } File = /home } Exclude { File = /proc File = /tmp File = /.journal File = /.fsck Control File = .NO_BACKUP } } I do not know how much effort it would take to change it so that this directive could be used just like WildDir or WildFile for example. It could be used for inclusion too then: With this fileset only every directory containing such a control file would be backed up. FileSet { Name = "MyFileSet" Include { Options { Control File = .DO_BACKUP } Options { Exclude = yes RegexFile = ".*" } File = /home } } Or even a combination of the two examples would be feasible: # List of files to be backed up FileSet { Name = "MyFileSet" Include { Options { signature = MD5 Control File = .DO_BACKUP } File = /home } Exclude { File = /proc File = /tmp File = /.journal File = /.fsck Control File = .NO_BACKUP } } Comments? -Marc -- 8AAC 5F46 83B4 DB70 8317 3723 296C 6CCA 35A6 4134 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Bacula-devel mailing list Bacula-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-devel
