39 # List of file systems to be dumped.
40 # Actually, any directory may be used, but if it has subdirectories on
41 # other file systems, they are not included.
42 # The host name specifies which host to run tar on.
43 # It should normally be the host that actually has the file system.
44 # If GNU tar is not installed on that machine, then you can specify some
45 # other host which can access the file system through NFS.
46 # Although these are arranged one per line, that is not mandatory.
47 # It does not work to use # for comments within the string.
