I'm running F11 and I keep getting an error on my backups. I've tracked
this down to a file, .gvfs, in users home directories. From the log
file:

/bin/tar: ./.gvfs: Cannot stat: Permission denied

I use the web interface to edit the configuration but I cannot find the
correct syntax to exclude these files. The TarShareName is / and I've
tried the following for BackupFilesExclude

.gvfs
*.gvfs
/home/*/.gvfs

none of which work. How have others overcome this? And, yes, I do have
the Override box checked.

Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve;

This works for me:
