Re: [Bacula-users] "First Match" Issues
That looks pretty good. For 100% correctness, I think your Exclude should be
Wild = "C:/Documents and Settings/*"
if you want to prevent backup of files at the top level or in the users'
directories.
I guess the phrase "you must include all ancestor directories of each
directory containing files to be included" (from the manual) is a more cryptic
way of saying what you found out below.

Re: [Bacula-users] "First Match" Issues
Never mind, I figured it out on my own by tinkering with it. I will
post a code snippet in case someone searching runs across it may be
able to understand better. Thank you Martin for your advise, it just
was not clear enough for me to understand. What I needed to do was add
a separate entry for every level of the folders.
Note for every folder you want to backup you need a start location,
and an entry for every level of folders after until you reach the
folder you want to back up.
Ex:
FileSet {
Name = HmcBackup
Include {
File = "C:/Documents and Settings"
Options {
IgnoreCase = yes
Compression = GZIP1
RegExDir = "^C:/Documents and settings/[^/]+$"
WildDir = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/My Documents"
WildDir = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings"
WildDir = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Application Data"
WildDir = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Application
Data/Microsoft"
Wild = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/My Documents/*"
Wild = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Application Data/Microsoft/*"
}
Options {
Exclude = yes
WildDir = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/*"
}
}
}

Re: [Bacula-users] "First Match" Issues
The short answer is the lines that say "Ditto..." in the example. My advice is to start again with the example fileset and understand exactly how it works, including the "Firstly..." and "Secondly..." text just above it, which is critical to why your fileset doesn't work. __Martin > On Fri, 27 May 2011 10:28:58 -0500, Jake Debord said: > > That is the example I started from.

Re: [Bacula-users] "First Match" Issues
That is the example I started from. As far as I can tell I am including Local settings. It's formatted the same way the My Documents folder is.

[Bacula-users] "First Match" Issues
I have read the documentation on how bacula looks at what to include
vs exclude by the first match. I am trying to get two folders backed
up only and exclude all else. It will backup the My Documents folder,
but will not backup the local settings>etc I will attach the code
snippit, if someone would be so kind as to point out what my error may
be. TIA
FileSet {
Name = Backup
Include {
File = "C:/Documents and Settings"
