Hi Ray,

================= 
You need to exclude /proc from your backups. It's a virtual file system 
maintained by the kernel, and does not need to be backed up. 

Here's the excludes we use for Linux hosts: 
... 
================= 

I am running that now on the Linux Machines, hopefully all is well. Thanks!

I tried the same for the Windows Machine, as the error is;

NT_STATUS_SHARING_VIOLATION opening remote file \Boot\BCD (\Boot\)
NT_STATUS_SHARING_VIOLATION listing \Boot\*
NT_STATUS_SHARING_VIOLATION listing \\*

However, it didn't seem to work.

Here is the config I added;

$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {
  'c' => [
    '\Boot',
    '\Boot\BCD',
    '/Boot/',
    '/Boot',
  ]
};

You are unable to add '\Boot\' as the two \'s cause everything after to turn 
red.

Tomorrow I'll be most likely installing a new Windows 2008 server and seeing if 
the problem persists.

Thank you.

Kind regards,

gshergill
