This is an Amanda forum and it's probably bad form for me to comment about Windows stuff here but have you looked at Windows Server Backup: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc754572%28WS.10%29.aspx more specifically the wbadmin command line tool here http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc754015%28WS.10%29.aspx I believe it is the replacement for NTBackup in Window Server 2008 Cheers Steve +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by [email protected] via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to [email protected]. +----------------------------------------------------------------------
