[Veritas-bu] NetBackup with clients on a VPN?
I have a few road-warrior clients with laptops that connect to our network via OpenVPN, meaning they have an encrypted connection, but they share an IP address as far as NetBackup sees, and connections can only be made from the client to the backup server. I understand this precludes scheduled backups and server restores, but I wonder if there might be a way to use user backups. I seem to recall there is a way to turn DNS forward and reverse look-ups off. However, I'm really stuck with authentication. How could the backup server ensure the client is who its clientname says it is? I have NetBackup Enterprise, w/o laptop/desktop option ... version 6.5, if it makes a difference. My take is that a commercial cloud solution such as Carbonite would provide a much better solution than I can with NetBackup, but I'd love to hear your ideas on how NetBackup might be used, or any other comments you'd care to offer.

Re: [Veritas-bu] NetBackup with clients on a VPN?
Have you check the netbackup/backupexec DLO. I think that support backups over DSL. In fact this software is based on a product called telebackup.

We currently use a home grown application to backup our desktops / laptops and it's terrible from a space use perspective. I did a simple analysis on replacing this with another solution, and the online solutions were the most expensive. (Mozy, Carbonite, etc..) The most feasible solution from my analysis (for Windows Desktops / Laptops) was Microsoft Data Protection Manager. Our existing EA license covers the client cost, and the server component is free. The package includes an app that runs backups on the client, then synchs changes to the DPM server when it connects to the corporate network. There is also a deduplication feature built in so the same OS files are not backed up repeatedly. I haven't had a chance to actually deploy DPM, but from a high level cost / features analysis it looked the most promising. Further evaluation is scheduled to begin this summer. -Jonathan From: veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu [mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu] On Behalf Of Wayne Smith Sent: Tuesday, March 15, 2011 11:06 AM To: veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: [Veritas-bu] NetBackup with clients on a VPN?

[Veritas-bu] Win2k8 Clients - Query on exe files
Evening, I think I could be going mad. I tried tried this on 2 NBU environments (6.5.6 and 7.0.1) and I am able to reproduce the same problem. I have some Services that run on windows 2008 clients that have .exe files in folder. The trouble is, when I do a restore, the .exe files are not present. I see System State listed, and although I can expand the container, I am NOT able to drill down to see individual files! For example, I have a container called System Files but I have no idea if my .exe files are in there. Is anyone got 2k8 clients out there that could check if their .exe files are getting backed up, or am I over looking something!
