Does it do all the M$ defined file attributes?  I guessed that
those were the types of things that the original poster was
thinking as "acl's".  I note that bacula says it does save
"POSIX" acl's, but are those implemented by M$?  But I did
not see anything specific to unique windows file attributes.

I also noted that bacula has the same problems as amanda when
it comes to backing up "all files", i.e. open files, sysfiles...
