[TriLUG] Converting an NT Server to Linux

[Tom Boucher]

As part of my job I've inherited a file server that we have running.  It's running NT 4.0 and seriously out of date.

To fix things, I'm going to wipe it out and put on Linux and use Samba to share the files out.

I've got a few volumes of data to worry about keeping, and a local tape drive.

Is there a way I could back it up inside windows that I could restore once Linux is up and running?   prefer something I don't have to spend money on because I don't have any money to spend.


Thanks

Tom
