>>From this FAQ regarding subject:
It got me closer, I've reduced the number of errors down pretty well. But it's far from intuitive. For example, to skip these files: NTUSER.DAT ntuser.dat.LOG1
ntuser.dat.LOG2 UsrClass.dat UsrClass.dat.LOG1 UsrClass.dat.LOG2 the entries that (finally) worked are (on the CGI page is):
*NTUSER.DAT *ntuser.dat.LOG? *UsrClass.dat *UserClass.dat.LOG?
using any form of just the filename didn't work - prepending a wildcard is what finally got me over that hump. Also, filenames are case sensitive.
I was also able to successfully skip a set of user profile directories (TestUser1, TestUser2, ...) like this: *\TestUser?
But still, I have not found how to skip JUNCTION directories. I've tried:
\Users\*\My Music\* *\My Music\*
HOW CAN WE INCLUDE KNOWN JUNCTIONS IN BackupFilesExclude LIST?!?!?! If I can get this final piece to work, I will have near 0 errors on my Windows SMB backups.
(I'm aware that I can avoid some of these problems using rSync backup, but I need to get SMB working none-the-less).
PLEASE, PLEASE, somebody fill me in on the secret?!
