On NT clients, the (default) EXCLUDE list should contain something
like the following lines... the system32\config should be there from
the installed sample dsm.opt!  Registry hives are backed up via API,
which gets current instance (rather than the locked-file version).

* Exclude registry-as-files...
Exclude *:\...\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\*.*
Exclude *:\...\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\...\*

* Added - 12/7/99 -dgf-

* On Print servers...
Exclude *:\winnt\system32\spool\printers\*.*

* Exclude registry-as-files....
Exclude *:\WinNT\Profiles\...\*
Exclude *:\WinNT\Profiles\...\*.*

* On Exchange machines, use separate dsm.opt for non-Exchange node
Exclude *:\exchsrvr\...\*
Exclude *:\exchsrvr\...\*.*
