Robocopy Version XP010 - Excluding Multiple Directories using /XD

$

I'm attempting to use Robocopy to routinely copy data between 2 servers.  In the file structure being copied there are several folders + their associated sub-folders e.g DfsrPrivate and Projects\Archived for this example I don't want to copy.

 

I've attempted to use the switches  /XD DfsrPrivate /XD Projects\Archived

/XF is also used to exclude all .bak files. (referenced after the 2 /XD switches)

 

This results in the log file header below:


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   ROBOCOPY     ::     Robust File Copy for Windows     ::     Version XP010
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Started : Wed Dec 05 00:51:28 2007

   Source : \\[Servername]\Data\
     Dest : D:\Data\

    Files : *.*
    
Exc Files : *.bak
    
 Exc Dirs :  DfsrPrivate
     Projects\Archived
     
     
  Options : *.* /S /E /COPYALL /ZB /MAXAGE:1 /R:10 /W:30

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

This results in the DfsrPrivate being excluded but Projects\Archived and all the subfolders below are not.

 

Has any one had experience with trying this, and had success?
