I have some Win-servers too, but I prefer rsyncd on them. Makes my
entire BackupPC installation more uniform: Windows through rsyncd, Linux

Can't you setup a dummy share for testing?

you are specifying the directory incorrectly. instead of \\backup\\* it
should be /backup/

I am trying to exclude one directory on a windows share but nothing I have
tried works. In short, I want to exclude "c:\backup" on a machine called
"PARKS". I have a custom config.pl for that computer. I set the exclude
directory via the web address. The entry it made in PARKS.pl is:
$Conf{Ba
