Shawn,

If you want the use /excludedb option, you need to install DP for SQL 5.5.0
or higher.

Just to make sure I'm not looking in the wrong places....
Is it right that there were no TDP for SQL (32 bit) updates between 5.2.1.
and 5.5 ?

My SQL servers don't have all the requirements for the 5.5 client, but I
need that excludedb option to avoid the whole "differential backup of the.
master db" issue
http://www.adsm.org/lists/html/ADSM-L/2005-11/msg00258.html

I hate coding the database names explicitly.  Is my only option forcing
the sql servers to upgrade?

Regards,
Shawn
