Hi - I am encountering an error with flexbackup caused by the .gvfs special file in my home directory. An example is below. Is there a way to pass in an argument to "find" to exclude this directory?

How are you running the backup? Root? Also what are the permissions on the file? On May 31, 2008, at 9:23 PM, "Andrew I.

I am running the command using sudo on Ubuntu 8.04. However, this is some kind of special file/directory that even root can't rename (use mv command) or "chmod u+w". It has zero bytes, unlike a symbolic links or ordinary directories. If I try to "rm -rf" it, there is a "Device or resource busy" message. Thanks, -Andy |

If root has trouble with the file, I would definitely look into what/who created that file and see what can be done. In the meantime I'll look up some of my flexbackup scripts and see if I can figure out an exception rule. On Sun, Jun 1, 2008 at 12:58 AM, Andrew I.
