True, but equally you don't need to worry about someone plugging in an
external HDD etc which you don't really want backed up, or another NFS
mount/etc...

I guess backing up everything except the exclusions is good if other
people might change the HDD layout without you noticing...

Perhaps a simple plugin/add-on to backuppc which can ssh to the host,
run a "mount" look for specific fs types (eg, ext2/3, reiserfs, etc...
and then email/alert if any were not backed up... I might think about
that one as a possible add-in for my monitoring system.

Adam
