I don't suppose amanda has [duck and run!] MS Windoze clients, does it? At the moment I'm trying to think of a reasonable way to get all my systems backed up...the best I can think of is to install Samba and a staging area disk on my FreeBSD box - then run some disk-to-disk backup software on the Windoze boxes to copy files to the staging area. Then back up with dump/tar/amanda/whatever from there. This is a home network with (at the moment) 1 BSD box and 2 Windoze boxes. Any other suggestions?
