The *x* works as expected. } I could not test whether the . in your dir name causes any problem. I tried it with double quotes, and I'm still seeing wget download files in the .backup directories. I've also tried escaping the "." with a "\" but that doesn't seem to work either. :( So, so far these don't work for me: --exclude-directories='*.backup*' --exclude-directories="*.backup*" --exclude-directories="*\.backup*" I've also tried this on my linux box running v1.9.1 as well. Same results. Any other ideas? Thanks a lot for your tips, and quick reply! /vjl/
