Keith,
Quite certain. (I've been messing with this for over a week now). The
destination directory, server2:/backup1/data, builds and fills
directories such as /bin, /usr, /etc, /var and fills them with content
from serverA's root directory. The directories bin,usr,etc,var and so
forth do not exist in serverA:/data only under / on serverA.
This really baffles me.

When I go to run an incremental rdiff-backup, things proceed for many

messy... rdiff-backup starts to then attempt to backup my root

rest are written to the destination directory

rdiff-backup --exclude-globbing-filelist
/root/scripts/RDIFFBACKUPEXCLUDE /data [EMAIL PROTECTED]::/backup1/data
Are you CERTAIN that the command you quote above is attempting to backup
your root directory?
