Goran, Although I haven't used Bacula in a production environment, I am currently using it to perform automated full/incremental backups of my Windows machines at home and it works perfectly. For my purposes it's a bit of overkill, but does the job with minimal fuss. Of all the researching I had done (way back), this was the best solution and will probably suit your needs. Not to mention it has some of the best documentation you could hope to find for an open source solution. -David On 2/8/06, G=F6ran Nilsson <goran.nilsson@gmail.com> wrote: > > Thanks Ian. > This sure looks like a good solutions.
