Posting the BackupFilesExclude setting for the host in question would be a good starting point... The usual place to go wrong is not having the share name or '*' on the left side of the '=>'. -- Les

Well I'm confused. I'm looking at the docs. It shows... $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = '/temp'; ...for an example. So I assume I need... $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = '/mnt/usb'; Do I need to manually edi

That might work, but you don't have: $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = '/mnt/usb'; You have: $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = { '/mnt/usb' => [ '' ] }; Which is completely different... -- Bowie -- FREE DOWNLOAD
I know that now. I just entered /mnt/usb based on what the docs said. I didn't know what the resulting config file actually looked like. -- FREE DOWNLOAD - uberSVN with Social Coding for Subversion.
