You are correct, It is not a good idea.  That is what departmental servers 
or NAS storage are for.
 Users should keep theirimportant data on the servers which are backed up 
daily, not on their workstations.
It is unserstood in our envorinment that you keep anything on your local 
hard drive
at your own risk.  In addition to that it becomes an administrative 
nighmare
if you have a large organization with 3000 or so users.  It is just too 
espensive and not
feasable. Hope this helps.

I have a general question. How many people have to backup everyone's 
machine
in the entire company Servers, laptops, and Desktops. Can you tell what to
watch out for or why this is not a good idea.

Thx

David
