backuppc and samba

I have problem using backuppc and exclude folder directive. I use smb to connect to windows boxes.

Any suggestions. I've read documentation, used shown examples and just no luck.

tnx,

 

What's the exact problem? Do you get any errors?

 

I use version 3.0xx on debian.
No errors. Using excludefolder option gives me headache.

example:

/etc/backuppc/Workstation1.pl

Code:

   $Conf{SmbShareName} = ['backuptest'];
   $Conf{SmbSharePasswd} = 'username';
   $Conf{SmbShareUserName} = 'password';
   $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {'/user3'};

I used forward and back slashes with no luck. /user3 folder is allways backed up. This is used in test controlled enviroment, backup meets our needs.

regards

 

I'm not sure if $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} is for excluding files or folders or both...
