For a few days i've trying to figure out how to make backup of my machine.
Since i have to duplicate it, i thought on tar'ing directories so i can
store untar them on the other mahcine, (wich is far away from this one) and
store it to have a safe copy.
But i still cannot tar var directory. In particular i have lots of problems
with /var/named/chroot/proc wich is filled with an incredible ammount of
stuff, like:

The question is, is there any of this files-directories that i can erase to
make a tar? by now im having problems with some files from the -number-
directories like:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 sep 12 01:57 exe
wich is not linked to anything
what can i do?
