Hello,

you still have some choices:
- move the files to another directory outside the /etc tree. This would 
make most sense since they dont really belong there from the "filetype" 
point of view. But i am sure you already checked this and depending on the 
product it may not be possible.
- ignore /etc/SOMEDIR - which you seem to do now
- <ignore type="sregex">.data$</ignore> which maybe an idea too since this 
extension is not really common.

The latter 2 will still scan the files (it doesnt copy them to the queue 
directory if i tested it right) and will compute their checksums. But they 
wont be reported to the server from what i see. Sadly i messed up my 
manager-client test installation due to the tests and need to set it up 
again (manually deleted the checksum files in queue/syscheck and they dont 
get generated anymore - even after a syscheck_control -u), but on a local 
install the files just got ignored.

Cheers

Thorsten
