How do I split a directory up for multiple savestreams (and still catch any new subdirectories)?

It appears possible to do it with one client entry. Here's a UNIX client example:

Savesets are:

 /space
 /space/directorya
 /space/directoryb
 /space/directoryc
 /space/directoryd
 /space/directorye


The directive is:

 << /space >>+skip: directorya
    +skip: directoryb
    +skip: directoryc
    +skip: directoryd
    +skip: directorye

or you could put all the directories on one line after a +skip..

This will backup /space but skip directorya, directoryb .. and

still back them up as explicit savesets. I don't know if the

syntax for NT is the same?
