Hello, I am putting the finishing touchs on an document that covers excluding data in amanda. I am working on a regular expression section and am having a little difficulty doing anything other the basic regex. I am using gnutar 1.13.19. If I use something like: --exclude=[ab] --exclude=[a\|b] --exclude=*.log --exclude=*a* These seem to work ok. If I try to use anything more advanced it just does not seem to be working. Could anyone provide me with any examples of more complex regular expressions that work with tar. Thank you in advance. Andrew Hall
