Hi,

we're running backups of a few Windows desktops with Bacula.  On Windows
Vista and Windows 7, you tend to get a bunch of messages like this:

jm-fd JobId 2526:      c:/Users/johnm/Documents/My Videos is a different 
filesystem. Will not descend from c:/Users/johnm/ into 
c:/Users/johnm/Documents/My Videos
jm-fd JobId 2526:      c:/Users/johnm/Local Settings is a different filesystem. 
Will not descend from c:/Users/johnm/ into c:/Users/johnm/Local Settings
jm-fd JobId 2526:      c:/Users/johnm/My Documents is a different filesystem. 
Will not descend from c:/Users/johnm/ into c:/Users/johnm/My Documents
jm-fd JobId 2526:      c:/Users/johnm/NetHood is a different filesystem.  Will 
not descend from c:/Users/johnm/ into c:/Users/johnm/NetHood
jm-fd JobId 2526:      c:/Users/johnm/PrintHood is a different filesystem.  
Will not descend from c:/Users/johnm/ into c:/Users/johnm/PrintHood 

I've noticed mention on lists that these folders are some sort of symlinks
though I'm not clear where to -- c:\ seems to be the only filesystem on the
box.  Can someone explain exactly what these messages are telling us?
Should we be at all concerned that they're not being backed up?

On a Windows XP machine, we also get some of these, but fewer:

tomasv200-fd JobId 2539: 
c:/WINDOWS/assembly/GAC_32/System.EnterpriseServices/2.0.0.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3a 
is a different filesystem. Will not descend from c:/ into 
c:/WINDOWS/assembly/GAC_32/System.EnterpriseServices/2.0.0.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3a
tomasv200-fd JobId 2539: 
c:/WINDOWS/assembly/GAC_MSIL/IEExecRemote/2.0.0.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3a is a 
different filesystem. Will not descend from c:/ into 
c:/WINDOWS/assembly/GAC_MSIL/IEExecRemote/2.0.0.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3a


Many thanks for any illumination,

Gavin
