Hi srossan,

thank you for replay and sorry for a bit late response ;)

I set following in /var/ossec/etc/ossec.conf

<ignore>/var/lib/backuppc</ignore>

but it doesn't work. ossec-syscheckd daemon still check this directory. I 
found next recommendation on http://www.ossec.net/doc/manual/syscheck/ so I 
add following:

<ignore type="sregex">^/var/lib/backuppc</ignore>

but it doesn't help too. To directory /var/lib/backuppc is mounted 
separated filesystem and now it contains a lot of files. It takes few days 
when ossec-syscheckd finish scanning and it has really negative influence 
to backup performance.
