Create the file with all you excludes and then loop through the list of
clients and run the bpsetconfig command on each client:

Clientlist:
        clienta
        clientb
        clientc

Exclude list:
        Exclude =3D c:\
        Exclude =3D d:\temp
        Exclude =3D pagefile.sys

The file will contain a list of _everything_ you want (80 lines will
work fine). It is also important to remember that this is a REPLACEMENT
of what is there. It does not append to the existing vaules.=20

Your best bet is to set it up manually on one client and then get the
format using bpgetconfig. Just take that output of the Exclude =3D entries
and put it into your file for the bpsetconfig command.
