Re: [Networker] [I] Re: [Networker] Directive to Skip

Use null instead.    Whenever I skip a parent filesystem, it deletes
index entries for the whole filesystem, so subsystems cannot be found.
Null does not do this.

Hello,
<< "C:\" >>
+skip: \"WINNT\system32\Perflib_Perfdata*"


TRY
<< "C:\\"WINNT\system32\Perflib_Perfdata* .*">>
+skip: 
Please read networker guide on Directive, there is specific info there
about how you can use space between * AND . in the directive, its easy
to write a directive if you want to skip everything under a given
directive, however, when you want to include and backup a subdirectory i
cannot seems to get it to work.
The only way ( goofy) way i got that to work is to write a directive
from local client, save it to txt file and then use it as a directive,
not sure if i am doing it rith, i have some parse errors as directories
are different on each servers, but seems to work.
Also you may want to pay attention to how directive are treated in
windows enviroment vs unix, there is slight difference how you write
them, discirption in the Networker guide.
Some exp
Does not work beyound skip windows
<<"C:\">>
     +skip: * .*

<<"C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32">>
