>>From the docs:

For Smb, only one of $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} and
$Conf{BackupFilesOnly} can be specified per share. If both are set for a
particular share, then $Conf{BackupFilesOnly} takes precedence and
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} is ignored.

So you will need to either modify your setup so you don't need to use
both includes and excludes (can you set up separate shares for each
include?), or you will need to switch to using rsync.
