Yes I did restart the service. Here's my incl-excl list. When use the GUI the 
NTUSER.DAT file is excluded, but when a backup is taken via the scheduler it 
gets included. Any idea why?


EXCLUDE "*:\MACINTOSH VOLUME\*" 
EXCLUDE "*:\MACINTOSH VOLUME\*.*" 
EXCLUDE "*:\MACINTOSH VOLUME\...\*" 
EXCLUDE "*:\MACINTOSH VOLUME\...\*.*" 
EXCLUDE "*:\MICROSOFT UAM VOLUME\*" 
EXCLUDE "*:\MICROSOFT UAM VOLUME\*.*" 
EXCLUDE "*:\MICROSOFT UAM VOLUME\...\*" 
EXCLUDE "*:\MICROSOFT UAM VOLUME\...\*.*" 
EXCLUDE "*:\...\EA DATA. SF" 
EXCLUDE "*:\...\PAGEFILE.SYS" 
EXCLUDE "*:\IBMBIO.COM" 
EXCLUDE "*:\IBMDOS.COM" 
EXCLUDE "*:\MSDOS.SYS" 
EXCLUDE "*:\IO.SYS" 
EXCLUDE "C:\WNETFIN\*.*" 
EXCLUDE "C:\WNETFIN\...\*" 
EXCLUDE "*:\...\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\*.*" 
EXCLUDE "*:\...\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\...\*" 
EXCLUDE "C:\INETPUB\CATALOG.WCI\*" 
EXCLUDE "C:\INETPUB\CATALOG.WCI\*.*" 
EXCLUDE "C:\INETPUB\CATALOG.WCI\...\*" 
EXCLUDE "C:\INETPUB\CATALOG.WCI\...\*.*" 
Exclude "*:\...\*.log"
EXCLUDE "*:\...\dsmsched.log"
EXCLUDE "*:\...\UsrClass.dat.LOG"
EXCLUDE "*:\...\UsrClass.dat"
EXCLUDE "*:\...\ntuser.dat.LOG"
EXCLUDE "*:\...\NTUSER.DAT"
DOMAIN "\\storserv\pro"
DOMAIN ALL-LOCAL


Thanks

That won't fix this issue.  I am just curiouse if you stopped and started the 
scheduler service after you add the exclude?  If you did then a copy of your 
entire include/exclude list would help.  You might have an include below your 
exclude that is catching NTUser.Dat.

I tried doing EXCLUDE "C:\...\NTUSER.DAT" on the client but it didn't help. I 
thought I might try EXCLUDE.SYSTEMOBJECT "REGISTRY" but I'm not really much of 
a Windows admin so I don't know if this would help me to get rid of these 
messages.

I know that I don't have to worry too much as I know that the rest of the 
system got backed up just fine but I would like to get rid of these messages. 
Does anyone know how? Thanks
