						Hi,
I have created an ignite image of a current box which I want to put on another client but I get warnings due to only the link will be included in the archive, not the actual file referenced by the link.
Does anyone know how to get around this as when I issue the -x exclude command it ignores this option.
Regards,
Simon

						Well actually You're getting what You want already :)
there is a symlink in the directories that are not excluded pointing to one of the excluded ones, and ignite is telling You it will only backup the link, not the target.
