Hi Scott,
Regarding the errors in the backup, some directories on mac os x are
not typical directories and they should be skipped or dealt with in a
special way. The /net/ directory is an example of this kind of special
directory.

In the excludes file you should not need to escape the spaces. If you
would like to check what is being copied accorss and you have the
latest alpha build then you can enable the session logging by changing
the line in your configuration from :
enable_rsync_session_log="NO"
to
enable_rsync_session_log="YES"
This will generate a session log of what is being copied. The session
log by default is stored within the backup configuration directory and
is called "rsync_session.log"
Enabling this feature is very helpful when you are setting up this
kind of backup.
I hope this helps.
