Hello,

I have been using flexbackup for over a year now and like
it very much.

I am now planning to use it on one of our servers, which
has a lot more users and files than the other computer I
use it on.

The /home directory has about seventy users.  Four of these
users use about 6G each of the drive space.  The others
use about 6G all together.

I do my backups to a separate disk on the local computer
(and then copy the images to a second computer) and I would
like to have each of the 'big' users go into their own image
file, and then all of the others go into one other image file.

I would like to do something like this:

$set{'home-fred'} = '/home/fred';
$set{'home-wilma'} = '/home/wilma';
$set{'home-barney'} = '/home/barney';
$set{'home-other'} = '/home/"everyone-else"';

and then:

$prune{'/home'} = "fred wilma barney";

but I see that this is probably not how the 'prune' stuff works,
so this will not do what I want it to.

I need a $prune{'home-other'} = "fred wilma barney"; or some such.

Or, I need something like:

$set{'home-af'} = "/home/[a-f]*";
$set{'home-gm'} = "/home/[g-m]*";
$set{'home-ns'} = "/home/[n-s]*";
$set{'home-tz'} = "/home/[t-z]*";

Any ideas on how to do this?

Thanks,

Scott
