NT4.0 splatters the user parts of the registry all over the place. I use the NT Resource Kit tools REGBACK.EXE and REGREST.EXE to handle the main registry hives, along with a homespun Windows NT CMD file/Perl script to sort stuff out. If I can help, drop me an email. Clem -----Original Message----- From: cshenton Sent: 09 August 1999 15:26 To: lconrad Cc: freebsd-questions; cshenton Subject: Re: One backup pgm for FBSD + NT?

It appears to do most of what Legato does and the tape format is slightly modified UNIX dump, rather than proprietary, so you can restore to a totally hosed machine with a little "dd" futzing. Amanda schedules backups based on priority so you don't have to worry about this yourself. It's excellent at network backup and knows how to drive most tape robots. I use it on three different UNIXes and there are hooks to get it to backup NT via Samba. There are some issues backing up busy NT files like the registry but I haven't looked into that yet.
