Re: [cobalt-users] Backup Questions.

["Mike Fritsch" <mfritsch@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I was am planning to backup /home/sites separate from /home, but I want to
backup everything else in /home in one tar. So I would have home.tar(without
sites) and sites.tar(without home) . The command I am using is

tar cfW /home/home.tar .

Can I add a command on the end to exclude /home/sites?

Thanks
  Mike
