I am doing a Windows 2008 backup with vss support enabled. The system state
is backed up using wbadmin utility and then saved to bacula.
Regarding the junction points, i have hundred of warnings each time i make a
backup with bacula, i don“t know how to avoid this and ,like Michael, i am
very interesting in how to solve it...
