Hi,

as it happens sometimes BackupPC backs up files not wanted to be stored
(usually due to misconfiguration ;)) I looked for an easy way to remove
files from BackupPC pool. So I found an old email in this list pointing
to
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/backuppc/index.php?title=BackupPC_DeleteFile

Seems to work fine so far. I was able to remove the most space waisting
"*.vmdk" files :)

Unfortunately I'm unsure how this script recons files.
So I invoked it with
 ./backuppc_delete.pl -r -t -c -s - -m  -h ns -n -   "*/*.iso"

Files/directories deleted: 0(0)     Files/directories copied: 0
Delete attrib set: 0                Attributes cleared: 0
Empty attrib files deleted: 0       Errors: 0

And it does not display any *.iso files. But browsing through the web
frontend I see couple of them in the backups:
/ftp/pub/linux/ubuntu-8.04.2-desktop-i386.iso

So what syntax do I have to use to find all iso files?

Thanks!
