Use "--exclude FILE " in the tar command. Read the man pages on tar.
man tar

Is there a way to create a tar file and exclude a specific directory
that is
within the directory you want to tar?
For example, I have a directory called /www/ and in that directory is
another directory called /www/test/ and I want to tar up the /www/
directory but I do not want the tar to include the /www/test/
directory but
I do want the tar to include all the other sub-directories within /www/
Thanks!
