according to the man page for tar --exclude-from and -X are supported. This command does not do what I expected it to do: tar -cz -f/usr/local/tmp/RoddieRodHome.tgz /home/roddierod --exclude-from=/home/roddierod/.pan
Now I would expect that this would create a tar gzip file called RoddieRodHome.tgz and tar ball of my home with every thing but the files in .pan. But it does include the .pan directory. Is the --exclude-from not supported even though it is in the manpage?
