Dear all,
Does anybody know how NetWorker decides on the changed files?
What is the working algorithm behind the incremental backups?
I know that you can make NetWorker use modify date by a directive,
or make it use the NTFS change log.
But in the normal case what does it use?  If it is only the size, than it
would
be too simple :)

Best regards,
