If you have Windows 7 Pro, Windows Backup is actually fairly usable as an image-backup tool, though it's nearly worthless for file-level restore. If you have Windows 7 Home, it's intentionally crippled. I'm actually considering a hybrid approach - Win7 native image backup for bare-metal recovery, combined with Bacula for file-level restore of user data. -- Phil Stracchino Babylon Communications ph...@caerllewys.net p...@co.ordinate.org Landline: 603.293.8485 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start Your Social Network Today - Download eXo Platform Build your Enterprise Intranet with eXo Platform Software Java Based Open Source Intranet - Social, Extensible, Cloud Ready Get Started Now And Turn Your Intranet Into A Collaboration Platform http://p.sf.net/sfu/ExoPlatform _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
