Thanks Ryan. I will try that but wondering why the
BackupFilesExclude<https://backuppc.cloudflare.com/backuppc/index.cgi?action=view&type=docs#item__conf_backupfilesexclude_>is
not working. I would think that it would either add the --exclude
args
to the list or from what it seems to be doing sending the exclude over the
connection.
One other piece I forgot to mention is I am using a restricted shell to only
allow rsync so not sure if that might be another reason for it not working.
The command that is sent is being run so it doesn't seem to be cause of the
issue.
