Developing an exception list for extensions
Updated: 21 May 2010 | 7 comments
I know the usual ones, but does anyone have opions on the following:
vmdk -vmware file
nsf - Lotus database
These are large binary objects that are scanned for Lotus by an email scanner and for vmware inside the actual virtual machine.
i.e. I think I should exclude.
What other type of large files are logical to exclude.
