3. Comparison between Windows OS and Linux/ FreeBSD OS
4. Managing filter for Windows
5. Managing filter for Linux/FreeBSD
Appendix A: Examples using Simple Comparison
Appendix B: Examples using Regular Expression (UNIX-style)
Appendix C: Filtering in network drives on Windows
Appendix D: Filtering in Windows shared folder on Linux/FreeBSD
Appendix E: System Files for Continuous Backup Exclusion on Windows
Filter Name = Filter that starts with uppercase letter C Matching Pattern = C Filter Mode = Include Them Exclude all others = True Matching Type = Simple Comparison | Starts With Apply To = File Directory = /mnt/backupfiles
As a result, these are the total files and directories that have been successfully backed up:
Total New Files = 6
1. CloudBackup_001.txt
2. CloudBackup_002.txt
3. CloudBackup_003.txt
4. Configuration_Guide2016.docx
5. Configuration_Guide2017.docx
6. Configuration_Guide2018.docx
Total New Directories = 5
1. /
2. /mnt
3. /root
4. /usr
5. /usr/local
Explanation:
All the files that starts with uppercase letter C have been successfully backed up including the directories but excluding all the other files that did not match the filter. This example is the same as the one on the simple comparison – starts with filter, the only difference is that the source destination is a Windows shared folder.
This filter only applies to a specific folder which is mnt, and since the File, under the “Apply to” field, has been set to true, only the files have been backed up even if there are available folders that matched the set criteria.

Filter Name = Filter that contains the word Backup Regular Expression Matching Pattern = ^.*Backup.*$ Filter Mode = Include Them Exclude all others = True Matching Type = Simple Comparison | Starts With Apply To = File Directory = /mnt/backupfiles
As a result, these are the total files and directories that have been successfully backed up:
Total New Files = 3
1. CloudBackup_001.txt
2. CloudBackup_002.txt
3. CloudBackup_003.txt
Total New Directories = 5
1. /
2. /mnt
3. /root
4. /usr
5. /usr/local
Explanation:
All the files that contains the word version, whether it is located at the beginning, middle, or end of the file name, have been successfully backed up including the directories but excluding all the other files that did not match the filter.
Looking closely, unlike in the Appendix A using simple comparison, we’re using the Regular expression (UNIX-style) with pattern ^.*Backup.*$. This filter only applies to a specific folder which is mnt, and since the File, under the “Apply to” field, has been set to true, only the files have been backed up even if there are available folders that matched the set criteria.
This example is the same as the one on the regular expression – contains filter, the only difference is that the source destination is a Windows shared folder.
