Re: [BackupPC-users] How to archive only part of a backup?

[Guy M. <gma...@gm...>]

Thank you for your quick reply.
I know and I use include/exclude (only exclude really) directories.
What I want to achieve is not changing the regular backup, which is the
whole machine, but only archiving part of it.
In other words, backup the whole machine but only archive two directories.
Thanks!
Guy
