[ubuntu-za] SBACKUP DOESN'T BACKUP TO DVD+RW?

[Wesley]

Apparently you can specify any extra options in
Grsync<http://www.opbyte.it/grsync/#features>via the command line, so
you can exclude files and directories. But if you
do that you might as well just run rsync in the console anyway ;) See here
for exclude examples <http://sial.org/howto/rsync/>.
