All the transfer methods (smb, rsync, tar) allow you to specify which
folders you wish to back up.
The way to achieve what you want is to create two 'hosts' to be backed

Just remember that with smb you can either include specific
directories/files within a share, or exclude. You cannot do both.
There is a nice recipe I have used previously for the standard

Do the graphs appear but not work, or are they not there at all?

What about the big and little 'm'? 'm'illi/'M'ega... makes quite a lot
of difference too, even if a millibit/byte isn't a very useful unit!
