I have been using CrashplanPro (http://www.crashplan.com)to backup windows/mac clients to an OpenSolaris Server.
I just checked and they now have a Solaris Client. I have not used the Solaris client yet. I found the crashplanpro client better served our needs than Netbackup. It's also considerably cheaper than deploying netbackup workstation licenses. There are 2 versions of Crashplan. The pro version is meant for Enterprise backup while Crashplan lets you backup your files on up to 10 computers. I have a small 25 seat license right now. I'll be moving up to 125 seat soon. What I like the most about the client is that is does client side de-duplication while the netbackup client does not. You can do de-duplication with the Netbackup server but you have to buy Netbackup Puredisk ($$$) and a pretty big server. Client side excludes are easier to deploy using Crashplan Pro than Netbackup. I still think Netbackup has it's place for us but CrashplanPro does a better job with our clients. Karl Thomas J.
