I've followed instructions for adding directories to .filetool.lst in order to back them up. All of the ones I have added do back up except one.
/lib/modules/2.4.26/my_folder
I've tried adding it as the folllowing ways and none work

/lib/modules/2.4.26/my_folder/
lib/modules/2.4.26/my_folder/
/lib/modules/2.4.26/

/lib is not writeable from your backup unless you've already loaded a *.dsl mydsl package.  You can fix this either by creating a *.dsl extension from your lib file(s), or have a *.dsl auto-loaded.

Keep in mind that it must be *.dsl.
*.tar.gz and *.uci do not run mkwriteable.

I'm not sure how *.unc would fit into this situation, but i think it would work.
