Hi Evan,

Try creating a file called "nsr.dir" in the directory where ~snapshot exists
with a:

skip: ~snapshot

entry. Have a look at the format of such files on your NetWorker server -
there will be one under the nsr directory (sorry for being vague - don't
have a NetWorker server handy!).

Cheers

Mark
