Based on what you show above, you should have received an error. You need commas between the entries. $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = { 'c$$' => [ '\Boot\*', '\Documents and Settings\*' ] }; Note the comma at the end of the "Boot" line. A comma after the last entry is not required, but will not result in an error if you just want to add commas after all the entries for consistency. -- Bowie ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
