The docs start with saying: "List of directories or files to exclude  
from the backup." This is also true for rsync. There are no rsync- 
specific comments, but they are not really needed either.

But if Craig is going to fix the 'exlclude' error in the docs at  
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude}, then he maybe could expand 'smbclient or  
tar' to 'smbclient, rsync or tar'.
