Hi All,
I have these items listed in my selction list (via the lotus domino selection AND via the filesystem)
EM-SERVER-01|D:\Lotus\Domino\Data\*.ft /SUBDIR /EXCLUDE
\\EM-SERVER-01\D:\Lotus\Domino\Data\*.ft /SUBDIR /EXCLUDE
But in my backup report I get,
======================================================================

Why is it still backing up the .ft folders and there contents.

Take note of the Note in the document quoted by Ken.
Every sub-directory after the ** wildcard is included or excluded based on parameters set in the job.
I think your first line
EM-SERVER-01|D:\Lotus\Domino\Data\**\*.ft
should be sufficient.

EM-SERVER-01|D:\Lotus\Domino\Data\*.ft /SUBDIR /EXCLUDE tells Backup Exec to look for *.ft in the data folder itself
Try using
EM-SERVER-01|D:\Lotus\Domino\Data\hosting\client01 in the path and *.ft in the files
You can also use a "**" to inidcate anything at that level so you could use
EM-SERVER-01|D:\Lotus\Domino\Data\**\**\ and *.ft
See http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH38995

So there is no "global" way to exclude a folder from anywhere in the path
EM-SERVER-01|D:\Lotus\Domino\Data\
could have multiple direcories at multiple depths that contain something.ft
ie
EM-SERVER-01|D:\Lotus\Domino\Data\hosting\blah.ft
or
EM-SERVER-01|D:\Lotus\Domino\Data\hosting\client01\app\blah4.ft
etc
Is there no way to globally tell backupexe to not backup anything *.ft irrelivent of the path?

I thought I would try adding something like this...
EM-SERVER-01|D:\Lotus\Domino\Data\**\*.ft
EM-SERVER-01|D:\Lotus\Domino\Data\**\**\*.ft
EM-SERVER-01|D:\Lotus\Domino\Data\**\**\**\*.ft
EM-SERVER-01|D:\Lotus\Domino\Data\**\**\**\**\*.ft
But I can't add more then one, it just keeps overwriting the last one..
I'm at a bit of a loss now...
