Hello,

I read the manual(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/mysqlhotcopy.html)
and especially:

" Back up tables in the given database that match a regular expression:

shell> mysqlhotcopy db_name./regex/

The regular expression for the table name can be negated by prefixing it with a tilde (‘~’):

shell> mysqlhotcopy db_name./~regex/
"

I want to backup all my tables except two -'rtt' and 'expirations'.

I use
/usr/local/bin/mysqlhotcopy -p mypass --allowold mydb./~expirations/~rtt/ /var/backups/mysqlbackup/$1


However for some reason mysqlhotcopy do NOT skip tables 'rtt' and 'expirations'.

Please give me an idea what is wrong. Thanks :-))

Kind regards,
