The example quoted below was recently posted to the rsync mailing list regarding backing up multiple directories.
> $ cat >dirs.txt <<EOF > sourcedir/GroupA > sourcedir/GroupC > EOF > > $ rsync -r --include-from=filt.txt --prune-empty-dirs `cat dirs.txt` destdir Tthis is one way which has the potential allow multiple directories being set as a from source within a configuration file. If this kind of approach makes sense to you then I will carry out some research as to the feasibility of this approach. This may not be a possibility as the reply this post mentions issues with escaping spaces.
