Per http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/faq/BackupPC.html#_conf_backupfilesexclude_
"For Smb, only one of $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} and
$Conf{BackupFilesOnly} can be specified per share."   The smbtar
client just doesn't have a way to handle both.   You'll either have to
arrange top level shares for the things you want to include or install
cygwin rsync on the PC so you can use the full syntax.
