Re: [Networker] How reliable our your windows backups?

I back up 40 NT/2000 clients and 10 Novell clients. I never have any issues
with the Windows clients unless someone makes changes to the client systems and
doesn't tell me. The Novell clients on the other hand have always been a
nightmare. Thankfully, we are slowly getting rid of our Novell boxes. Our
windows environment has been quite clean and is prone to be error free (knock
on wood). I have no complaints towards these clients since they have been
quite reliable for us.
Regards,
Phil M.

Presently, we backup about ~40 Solaris boxes and very reliably. It has been
dictated from higher up that we look at backing up NT/W2k servers.

What type of problems have people been having with NT/W2k server backups to a
Solaris backup server?
I also heard that there was in the past a problem with backing up the Windows
registry. Is this still a problem?
Thanks!
