Don't forget that you can define exclude patterns inline in your disklist file:

srv1    /homes/a    comp-user-tar 1
srv1    /homes/b    comp-user-tar 1
srv1    /homes/c    comp-user-tar 1
[...etc...]
srv1    /homes/z    comp-user-tar 1
srv1    /homes {
    comp-user-tar
    exclude append "./[a-z]"
    } 1

No need to define a proper dumptype for every exclusion under the sun.

Thanks, I'll try it out that way. But see my remarks about tar in my last list-posting with the subject 'Sizes don't fit?'. I'm not sure about the results I'll get ...
