RE: Error: cannot stat VFAT directory

Miek:

Your mailer wrapped the line.  The full dir line is one line in my
hdup.conf.

I also tried having the "Personal\ Document" path at the end of the line,
and then in the middle - nothing changes.  The other two /windowsd/
directories are both backed up fine using the order you see below - I just
checked my monthly backup.

Thanks,

Andrew

what happens if you change to order? So that you won't have to
\<space> the space just before the newline? (or is this a wrapping
introduced by my mailer?)
