Forgot to show what the config file looks like, sorry

$Conf{SmbShareUserName} = 'domain_name\\admin';

$Conf{SmbShareName} = [

  'c$'

];

$Conf{BackupFilesOnly} = {

  'c$' => [

    '\\outlook'

  ]

};

Hello all my first post, so please be gentle…

I installed and setup backupPC(3.1) on my Ubuntu(maverick) Linux box via apt-get.

I use to use BackupPC a few years back for linux only backups and it worked great. Recently my HP tape drive failed at work and I figured I would go to disk backup instead and give BackupPC a try once again but for Windows boxen this time.

So I configure a Windows XP(sp3) machine as a test before I go to windows server 2008 R2. But for the life of me I cannot get BackupPC to backup only a particular drive??

I googled and found a few posts, and I thought I had found one here…

But those instructions do not work…

Basically I want to ONLY backup the folder named outlook on the c: drive of a few manager’s PCs

I follwed this specific screen shot

I am using the GUI rather than edit the files as I wanted to make it simple for others to use when I am away or if other sys admins need to restore files..

No matter what I configure it always backs up the entire C$ dirve rather than just the c:\outlook folder?

I am dumbfounded…

Can someone throw me a bone? J

Thanks in advance…
