Backing up Window clients

[Dave Bour]

I have several clients using NASbackup which is a windows shell to a cygwin rsync client. That allows you a whole lot of options at the back end.  It's easy, user friendly, robust and makes it easy for you to generate reports, monitor users, etc

Subject: [TLUG]: Backing up Window clients

Hi pals,

Last week, one of the company employee lost her laptop. This triggered
the management to mandate that there need to be automated backups
daily. I am therefore looking for application to do automatic backups
of clients computers. Naturally, these are mainly Window platform. I
am aware of amanda, but have no experience with using it and most of
the documentation out there seem a little dated. I am however inclined
to take this routes unless convinced otherwise, as it seem to support
HP C5683A SCSI system currently in place.

Does someone here use amanda and what is their experience with it?
i.e, How reliable is this application? What are the other alternatives
out there and how do they compare with amanda? Any advice would be
appreciated

Regards
William
