Multiple source directories in duply Is it possible to specify multiple source directories in a `duply` configuration file? If not is there any simple workaround?

Make the source your system root `SOURCE="/"` and then create an exclude file at:


~/conf//exclude


At this article there is a good example of exclude file: <


**/*[Cc]ache*
**/*[Hh]istory*
**/*[Ss]ocket*
**/*[Tt]humb*
**/*[Tt]rash*
**/*[Bb]ackup
**/*.[Bb]ak
**/*[Dd]ump
**/*.[Ll]ock
**/*.log
**/*.part
**/*.[Tt]mp
**/*.[Tt]emp
**/*.swp
**/*~
**/.adobe
**/.cache
**/.dbus
**/.fonts
**/.gnupg/random_seed
**/.gvfs
**/.kvm
**/.local/share/icons
**/.macromedia
**/.obex
**/.rpmdb
**/.thumbnails
**/.VirtualBox
**/.wine
**/Downloads


Also, you should not backup /dev, /proc and other system folders in a Unix system. Just add them to the exclude file.

If you mean multiple remote directories, you must create a profile for each machine:


duply server1 backup
duply server2 backup
