Ok, so you have two shares, '/home' and '/root'. > $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = { > '/home/virt_admin' => [ > 'Machines' > ], This will do absolutely nothing, since there is no share named '/home/virt_admin' > '/home/*' => [ > '.VirtualBox/Machines', > 'Downloads' > ] > }; This one should work to exclude files/folders with these names under the '/home' share. You should add another one here for 'virt_admin/Machines' to replace the non-functional exclusion above. -- Bowie ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
