The server is at my main school, but because of new policies that came in when we switched over to Active Directory from Novell I don't have login rights to the fileserver anymore. This means that I can't install the bacula client. There is no sane backup solution at my biggest school so I decided to use Ubuntu LTS, a terrabyte external HD and bacula. I do the backups in the middle of the night (which, of course, is how bacula really likes to work ;-) and workstations are shut down at 6:30 PM so the number of open files is minimal. This really is the best I can do at the moment unfortunately. I'm trying to document how well things work (and, except for this issue, they work perfectly) so that I can argue for the client being installed on the server. I don't hold out much hope though. Ever thought about virtualization?  (ie: VirtualBox) You could virtualize this Windows system, then run bacula on the VirtualBox host and not have to mess with the Windows piece at all.  Of course, it will be a complete backup every night, but at least you'd be covered.
