Also, you can't use wildcards in $Conf{BackupFilesOnly}. You need to use an absolute path. > #FILES TO EXCLUDE > #--------------------------------------------------------- > $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = { > 'c' => ['/Program Files/*', '/WINDOWS/*'], > 'c' => ['/Documents and Settings/*'], > }; Once again the 'c' should be 'C$'. Unfortunately smbclient doesn't allow you to use both $Conf{BackupFilesOnly} and $Conf{BackupFilesExclude}. One choice is to change the share to be just the directory tree you want to back up and leave $Conf{BackupFilesOnly} empty. Using wildcards in $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} with smbclient is ok, but you need to use '\' instead of '/': $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = { 'C$' => ['\\Program Files\\*', '\\WINDOWS\\*'], 'C$' => ['\\Documents and Settings\\*'], }; (If you are entering this via the CGI interface you only need to enter a single '\'.)
