I'm 95% certain that you can create a FileSet which takes a list of targets from the output of a script. You could use this feature to solve your problem by writing a very small script which used find and create a recursive directory list. *checks the documentation* Indeed, you can do this, see: http://www.bacula.org/rel-manual/Configuring_Director.html#SECTION000147000000000000000 Something like this might do the trick (untested): FileSet { ... Include { File = "|dirlist.sh /proc" } } Where dirlist.sh is: #!/bin/sh /usr/bin/find $1-type d You could do this without the separate file, but its personal preference. > I'd like to be able to backup /proc for instance and in case I need to > do a bare metal recovery I wouldn't need to create /proc manually. > > I tried some wildcards but wasn't successful. > > Any suggestions ? > > Thanks > > Bruno HTH, -- Dominic GoodforBusiness.co.uk I.T.
