Hi Julien,
The "Exclude = Yes" option is for excluding wildcards, and appears in the
options section within the Include section of the Fileset along with the
wildcard (wildfile, wilddir..) or regular expression definitions to be excluded.
So just adding exclude = yes will do nothing without wildcards or regular
expressions defined ther as well.

Anything is possible. As it was already stated though, the rule of thumb for
versions is:
DIR == SD >= FD

Another Fileset? A completely different one? Not edit this one and remove the
exclude stanza?

This may be too simplistic an answer, but is it possible that you have edited
the Fileset but not told Bacula about the changes?
After making a change to a Fileset (or any other resource), you need to
execute the reload command within bconsole.
Also, to speed up verifying Fileset changes you can test your Filesets without
actually running a backup by using the estimate command like so:
(at shell prompt)
# edit config(s)
# bacula-dir -t -c /path/to/bacula-dir.conf (this parses and verifies the
config so that issuing a reload in bconsole will not crash your director)
(in bconsole)
* reload
* estimate listing Job=JobName Level=Incremental
Hope this helps.
