Thanks to all that posted.
I modified my exclude file to not use quotes, and specify the directories (i.e. Internet/* ). Next I changed my tar command as has been indicated. I'm still seeing the same behavior though. The moment I use "--exclude-from FILE", the tar command just ends with no errors.
I tried the --exclude option, and this seems to work fine. But I'd rather specify my excludes in a file - to be more manageable.
Any thoughts?
Shawn

Sorry ... yes. I didn't experiment too hard ... I must admit. Note there is
no slash on the end. ;-)
