Hi all,

I have another windows related question (apologies if its a stupid question - I've never had to backup windows clients prior to now!).

My understanding is, to back up open files on Windows Server 2003, I use the VSS client. But on Windows XP I use Open File Manager. My reseller has told me that each XP client using Open File Manager requires a VSS license on the server.

Is this correct? I'm afraid I have to double-check everything they tell me now, since they gave me incorrect information about being able to use a Linux server to backup 2003 Server using VSS.

Thanks,

Nick
