Re: [Bacula-users] client fileset

[Danie Theron]

Ok , tested it : bacula-dir works with : Include { Options { signature = SHA1 } File = "\\<C:/bacula/bin/include.txt" -forgot to remove the / } What is the correct syntax in the actual include.txt file ? I tried diff combinations : "c:/danie" - Could not stat "c:/danie": ERR=The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect. c:/danie - this one didn't come up with an error but nothing is backed up Would really like to get this going on my win32 machines , so any help/hints/tips would be appreciated.

But I did not remember the exact syntax.

Please note that if the filename is given within quotes, you will need to use two slashes. Include { Options { signature = SHA1 } File = "\\</home/xxx/filelist-on-client" } --- With this it is easy to have a standard file on all the computers that can be modified by the users.

The way I understand it all the FileSets must be defined in the director, which means if I want the users to define their own backup parameters then they would have to have access to the director, which obviously I don't want to give them.
