We have some W2K8 servers running here but not backing them up yet (just  
upgraded Bacula from 2.4.3 to 3.0.3, clients still on 2.4.4) so no  
experience with them in that respect.

Under W2K3 I use ntbackup to back up the registry, on W2K8 I played around  
with wbadmin but can't get it to do the same as this:

ClientRunBeforeJob = "if [%l]==[Full] (ntbackup backup systemstate /F  
c:\\systemstate.bkf)"
ClientRunAfterJob = "del c:\\systemstate.bkf"
ClientRunAfterJob = "del \"c:\\Documents and Settings\\Default User\\Local  
Settings\\Application Data\\Microsoft\\Windows  
NT\\NTBackup\\data\\backup*.log\""

Are you also talking about wbadmin and if so what am I missing?

Issues with wbadmin I have are:

1) on the command line I tried to make it back up to a local device which  
it refuses so I need to specify a share on another machine, then copy back  
the backup before letting Bacula at it

2) thinking I may need to define a schedule first (so it does not include  
local drives and therefore can back up to a local drive which is now not  
included in the backup), in the GUI I selected 'system state' only but  
this seems to include all files instead of just necessary system  
files/registry hives (I canceled while it was still bust racking up more  
than 60000 files).
