Hi John

Lets say that I have tried both with directory and files, unfortunately I
have the example with the txt file, but I definitely ran

flexbackup -c /etc/flexbackup.conf -dir odin:/home/flex

...getting the same error

find: invalid predicate `-E'
level 0 odin:/home/flex Tue Dec 02 23:09:40 2003 tar+gzip from

thanks for all your help

Uhm ... stupid question, but is /home/flex/test.txt a *FILE* or a
*DIRECTORY*?
-dir means directory. If you truly have a directory that ends in ".txt" then
.. well, whatever, but you have another problem. But, if this is a file,
then
you need to say

  -dir odin:/home/flex

in order to backup the entire directory. To my knowledge flexbackup isn't
setup
to just backup single files. Edwin might correct me here, but I think this
is
your problem.
