Here's a rookie question - I couldn't find anything in the doc or FAQ.
Why hasn't backuppc (version 2.1.2-6)  has backed all root directories
on my Linux server?
/bin, /dev, /home, /sbin and other directories (shown below) weren't
backed up during a full backup. backuppc is logging in as root on the
client. (I don't expect /dev, /proc ... to be backed up).
 
I don't see this behavior on a windoze client back up. 
 
Root directory contents:

        [EMAIL PROTECTED] /]#

And what backuppc indicates it's backed up from the backup page.
        /
        |- .automount 
        |- boot
        |- media
        |- misc
        |- sys

My conf.pl files don't have any exclude entries in them. 
I've attached conf.pl, environment, and shell settings.
