I didn't notice any INCLUDE statement?
After reading your include/exclude, how about this:
Exclude *
Include *:\...\Document and Settings\...\*
Exclude *:\...\Temp\...\*
Exclude *:\...\DRM\...\*
Exclude *:\...\index.dat
Now, why I chose these 5 statements:
TSM reads from the bottom up until it finds a match, so I'll start at the
bottom.
Exclude *:\...\index.dat
excludes a file named "index.dat" anywhere in the computer.
The next two excludes:
exclude *:\...\DRM\...\*
exclude *:\...\Temp\...\*
specifically exclude "Temp" and "DRM" directories (and sub directories
"\...\") anywhere in the computer.
Include *:\...\Document and Settings\...\*
specifically includes "Document and Settings" (and sub directories)
anywhere in the computer. Because index.dat, DRM, and Temp were processed
before this line, they will match and be excluded.
Exclude *
Exclude everything else.
A note, using "*:" for the drive letter permits this to work even if a
user has moved directories from C: to D: or elsewhere....
thanks and God bless,
