Chris,

        We had the same problem too with the Client Option sets, and we
found that it worked for v3.1.0.6 ADSM clients, but not for our NT servers
with the v 3.1.0.3 ADSM clients.

        I can't get any of these variations to work in a client option set.
        Does this work with the Client option sets? We are trying to avoid
having
        any
        include or exclude statements in the opt file.

        I'm trying to define it in a client option set. We are trying to
skip the
        Cache of
        internet hits, and the htm's in the directory. We have to backup
some htm's
        scattered elsewhere on the device so we can't just exclude the file
type.

        If I can figure out a way to get this to work I will be a VERY happy
camper.

        Thanks -  CR
