Hello, experts

I have two questions about BackupPC_tarCreate.

 (a) does the output go to stdout (I guess "yes")?
 (b) what do I put into the mandatory option "-s" (aka "share")?

(unfortunately, I seem not to be able to extract answers from the
doc).

For (a) I could just try, but (b) doesn't let me. If I just put
"*", I get an error:

  backuppc@proxmox-backup:/tmp$ /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_tarCreate -h 
my.host.name -n -1 -s *

errors out with (sorry, long lines ahead):

  /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_tarCreate: bad share or directory 
'systemd-private-e6854cb929ac4d858348462dca3b5a39-apache2.service-Bt1l2y/systemd-private-e6854cb929ac4d858348462dca3b5a39-chrony.service-SvEvID'
  /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_tarCreate: bad share or directory 
'systemd-private-e6854cb929ac4d858348462dca3b5a39-apache2.service-Bt1l2y/systemd-private-e6854cb929ac4d858348462dca3b5a39-systemd-logind.service-r30uaJ'

What is a "share" in this context? What can I put instead of "*"
above to tar "my data" (yeah, whatever _that_ is ;-)

Thanks for any insights
