Interesting. I was wondering why the GUI shifted the fields to the right when I 
entered a directory name. So you're saying the syntax should look like this?:
$Conf{BackupFilesOnly} = {
'/' => [
'/home/michael/'
]
}; 

I don't need to mess with RsyncShareName, right?
That being said, if entering my directory in the CGI leads to it containing an 
illegal value (sharename="/home/michael") wouldn't I expect it to throw an 
error rather than ignore the entry and backup everything? Or does BackupPC use 
some type of fail-safe mode where an error in config.pl just defaults to: "This 
guy is nuts! BACK IT ALL UP!!!" :)
