trying to use the exclude list style where the file info is in the file.....

I guess I could always nfs mount the entire thing and use the exclude list on that with a tar backup???

got an exclude file setup which 'should' stop all but a single file being backed up. But on first invocation its done ALL files. File is below and debug stuff shows the file in the parameter list for tar.

this is amanda 2.4.2p2 (yes I know it old) on FreeBSD backing up a samba share..


Amanda support for samba can handle only one exclude file.

(Samba 2.x.x and later could handle more, but nobody needed it
so badly that he patched amanda for it, yet.)
