Thanks. I fixed that.

The script is more a workaround than a final solution, yet. :-)



That it also copies ./lib/private/ results from here:



DIRS="private etc sysvol"

...

for d in $DIRS;do

      relativedirname=`find . -type d -name "$d" -prune`

      ....





The for-loop took all 'private' folders under $FROMWHERE. The important one
is ./private/. The other is just a side-effect. :-)



But ./lib/private/ isn't very large. So simply ignore, that it's in your
archive file in the end. You don't need it.

Marc
