I'm guessing it has to do with capturing multiple file streams. Observe:
C:\> echo hello > ttt
C:\> echo goodbye > ttt:a
C:\> more < ttt
hello
C:\> more < ttt:a
goodbye
C:\> dir tt*
Directory of C:\
07/08/2003 10:32a 8 ttt
A little-used but nice feature of ntfs. I understand it made the
implementation of Services for Macintosh much easier.
However, I am not aware of any syntax for referring to all streams by using
a :\ after the filename, so either that is Veritas's own syntax or I am
mistaken and this has nothing to do with multiple file streams.

I've tried modifying the exclude list from the master and the client. When
I look at the list on the client (regardless of where I created it from),
it's always that strange syntax.

YES, excludes do not apply to user directed backups.
Your syntax is correct for your exclude.
Have you tried modifying the exclude list from the Win2K master server
for the client in question?
This definitely sounds a bit weird.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] exclude lists on win03
Has anybody had problems with exclude lists on Windows Server 2003?
Master
is Win2K SP3 NBU 4.5 MP4 and client is Win03 NBU 4.5 MP4. I enter the
exclusions the same way that I do on my other Windows clients (for
example
*.tmp), but the files are not excluded during backups. If I look at the
exclude list on the client's GUI, everything shows up as *.tmp:\. I
think
this is the problem. I've also tried \*.tmp, .tmp, and tmp - all yield
the
same weird transformation in the exclude list. I can successfully
exclude a
specific file on Win03, and identical exclude lists work on 2K and XP.
Any
thoughts before I email support?
Side question - Am I correct in thinking exclude lists don't apply to
user-directed backups?
Thanks,
Matt
