i would've gone for clonezilla or mondo-rescue since both can do image level backup but i had to power off the source server and that is something that i could not live with, unless as a last resort on amanda enterprise, system state and files/folders backup can be done from its web interface but that is not open source (had to pay for its license per server). i know that this is a long shot but it would be great to avoid another license for the backup server and windows os entirely. -- Regards, Umarzuki Mochlis http://debmal.my -- To unsubscribe from and detail about this group http://portal.mosc.my/osdc-my-mailing-list-information OSDC.my Discussion Group In Facebook http://www.facebook.com/groups/osdcmalaysia/ Malaysia Open Source Conference 2012 MOSC2012 http://portal.mosc.my/
