Exclude some database tables from backups?

I would like to exclude some table data from mysql (large cache tables). Can I configure this via Webmin? I know it is possible via mysqldump (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4832380/how-can-i-exclude-data-for-ce..., or http://stackoverflow.com/questions/425158/skip-certain-tables-with-mysql...)

Howdy,

Unfortunately, Virtualmin doesn't have a way to include some databases within a given domain, but exclude others.

If you need to exclude certain databases, what you'd probably need to do is configure Virtualmin to not backup any databases for that particular domain, and then manually backup those databases outside of Virtualmin.
