Here's a script I use. It requires grep, blat and recode.
You will have to create your BKS file (it must be Unicode).
Watch for line wrap.

NTBACKUP is, in my experience, idiosyncratic and poorly-documented.
Reporting/logging is limited, and selective restores are somewhat
cumbersome. All that said, one you know what works and what doesn't,
it is very servicable. And, of course, you already paid for it, so it
doesn't cost extra. It use it on some servers here at %DAYJOB%.
The biggest limitation I find is that anything other than "unmanaged
media mode" (i.e., /UM switch) doesn't appear to work in any sane or
reliable fashion. There's some kind of drain bamage involved which
I've never figured out.
I've got a set of batch files that automate things reasonably well
for our purposes. Notable features include hands-off operation, tape
name reporting and preservation, and the ability to email the log
file. The design is basically put a tape in and it will run the
backup to it that night. If that tape is ejected the next morning, it
worked. Media rotation scheduling has to be handled manually, but I
use a basic daily/weekly/monthly scheme that makes that a no-brainer.
KISS.
I attempted to attach the scripts to this message, but Gmail refuses
executable files. I guess I should have seen that coming. Anyone got
some place I can upload 'em to?
