Hello,
I've been trying to make a backup with rdiff-backup from Windows Vista to a remote Linux box via ssh.
I'm trying to achieve something like this:
"S:Program Filesrdiff-backuprdiff-backup.exe" --exclude-globbing-filelist "S:Program Filesrdiff-backupmy_exclude.txt" --remote-schema "s:Program Filesputty2plink.exe -i privatekey.ppk %%s rdiff-backup --server" s:Tempdoc user < at > example.com::/home/user/.rdiff-backup
File my_exclude.txt looks like this:
- s:/Temp/doc/test
I've tried other variations, like S:\/Temp\/doc\/test or S:Tempdoc which was suggested in Windows howto, but nothing works and it throws this:
Fatal Error: Fatal Error: The file specification
's:/Temp/doc/test'
cannot match any files in the base directory
's:Tempdoc'
So my goal is to exclude "test" directory from S:Tempdoc. I am planning on backuping my Documents after I success with this, so I would also like to exclude some directories with spaces in their name (like "My Games").
Is it possible to do this with rdiff-backup on Windows?
Thanks and regards,
GroundZero
