- We have a small group of Windows machines on a predominantly-Unix
- network. We have PC-NFS on these machines, which provides us with some
- services, but it doesn't seem to provide us with a way to backup the
- local disks on the PCs (I would love to find out that this is wrong,
- though).
-
- I am looking for some mechanism that will allow us to automatically
- backup the local disks on these machines. We do not want to have to
- take them down to DOS each night, so the solution must run reliably
- under Windows.
