Ok, so I removed the BackupFilesExclude
and still it is backing up directories that are not in the
include list, and also not backing up some directories
that are in the include list! Obviously I am doing something
wrong, but not sure what!

However, the include and exclude just don't appear to be working at all.Per http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/faq/BackupPC.html#_conf_backupfilesexclude_ "For Smb, only one of $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} and $Conf{BackupFilesOnly} can be specified per share." The smbtar client just doesn't have a way to handle both. You'll either have to arrange top level shares for the things you want to include or install cygwin rsync on the PC so you can use the full syntax. |
