Think of Windows Backup (or NTBackup) as the > backup equivalent of Notepad. In my eyes this boils down to a powergrab where functionality is reduced in order to displace third parties. Like others I want a cross platform, flexible solution, but more importantly there are design, cost and security implications. For a registry backup with ntbackup there is no change needed, using wbadmin requires an infrastructure change: either adding localized storage (for keeping one full + incrementals), inefficiently expanding storage on the Bacula end (for cycling full backups) or giving machines access to the Bacula back end. These have cost, (network) design and security implications, any one of which will prohibit using wbadmin here. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
