I'm not sure if there's a builtin way to do it, but one alternative would be to 
have a .nsr file that says to skip /home/username/archive.  When the weekend 
comes around you could cron a simple shell script to move that .nsr file to 
.nsr-no (or whatever), in which case Networker WILL backup that directory for 
the fulls.  Then just move .nsr-no back to .nsr on Monday and the incrementals 
will skip over it again.
