It has come to my attention that GBak.exe has considerable flexibility
when requesting a backup.  You can tell it to connect to one db
service and create the file there, but give it a db host and path on a
different server.

This is very useful for facilitating remote backups.

I tried this with the .net data provider, but it seems to always want
to back up the file on the remote server.

I tried connecting to the localhost as the "data source" with a file
path like "ip:path".  It takes the IP:Path, but still creates the file
remotely.

Can this be done through the .Net api in some way (so that we can get
functionality on a part with the C++ API)?

Thanks,
Jess
