After further playing I am able to exclude .bak files from all backups and 
subdirectories but I am still not able to exclude particular folders from all 
subfolders.
Here's my config:
 
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {
  '*' => [
    '/.AppleDB',
    '/.AppleDesktop',
    '/.AppleDouble',
    '/Temporary Items',
    '*.bak'
  ]
};
 
using the above config, /.AppleDB folders are only excluded from the root of 
each share, i would like them excluded from all subfolders within shares as 
well. Thanks
 
-Steven
