Re: [FW1] NT Backup Solution for Firewall




The standard NT Backup program is the simplest way. It doesn't have any
scheduling capability, but it can be run from the command line, so it's easy to
use 'at' to schedule a batch file to run nightly or whenever you need it to run.
You don't get a database of files that have been backed up like you do with
ArcServe, but if you're backing up the same directory(s) all the time this
doesn't really matter.

And it's best advantage - it doesn't cost anything!

Subject:  [FW1] NT Backup Solution for Firewall





Hi all,

I am trying to find some form of backup solution for a
Firewall (apart from doing it the dirty way of backing
up the \conf directory etc).

What I'd like to do is have local backups to a tape
drive, note that I don't want to perform backups over
the network. From what I've seen of Arc Server and
Backup Exec these both require NT services such as
workstation and/or server to be running in order to
work. Naturally on a hardened firewall these services
are removed.

Has anyone on this list heard of something which would
enable me to do this?

Regards
Mike
