So you can configure your host with two shares - the whole machine (including or excluding the part you want to archive, as you want) - the part you wan't to archive only then, specify on the command line which share you want to archive (with the -s option) You can also create a virtual host, which point to the real host you want (with $Conf{ClientNameAlias}) and that you can configure with different share(s). --=20 Daniel Berteaud FIREWALL-SERVICES SARL.
