Re: [Networker] Networker Exclude List

Just a quick aside on this one.
Now, correct me if I'm wrong (and I'm sure someone will :)) but I was
under the impression that Networker will not backup over mountpoints
unless speciffically told to do so with the save -L option (or am I
getting confused with earlier versions?)

Bob
