$Conf{RsyncShareName} should contain the directories which should backuped.
If it contain '/' than all subdirectories, including /etc will be backuped,
if it is not on another filesystem and you use --one-file-system.
If it contain '/etc' than only /etc and all subdirectories of /etc will be
backuped.
