are there any plans to implement linux inotify selection of files to backup? Thnx.
 
I'm curious how one would implement such a feature alongside the current mechanism for selecting files.  I'm guessing that any time an inotify event comes through for the file, that the Bacula File Daemon would add this file to a table.  Then once per minute, or once per five minutes, Bacula File Daemon will match all the files in the table stored in memory against the FileSet Definition?

However, I thought the FileSet Definition is stored on the Bacula Director (not the client).  So maybe once per minute or once per five minutes the FileDaemon will have some communication with the Director?

Hope I'm not polluting the list, I have always been curious about this same type of feature myself.
