I tried NTBackup first, before I noticed Veritas was installed. What I
need to do is to quickly make a backup
of the disks since, as I mentioned, we don't have any right now. NTBackup
turned out to require some bureaucracy around media pools and stuff,
and I just want to get the stuff over to the tape with as little
admin as possible.

We already have Unix and Linux machines - and they're even being backuped...
