Amanda may be second in line.<br><br>Areca is touted as a "personal backup" software, so if you're just backing up the one server to its own tape drive, Areca might fit your requirements.<br><br>My own goal is to be able to 1) use FOSS backup software at my clients instead of BackupExec and 2) to be able to have a hard drive-based backup server running at my office that I can use during off-hours to regularly back up select individual folders and files from my clients' servers and even select workstations. After developing it, #2 would cost very little to operate, but it would be a good second line of defense for my libraries & schools. Not all of them are very good about their backups. Even fewer regularly take a backup off-site.<br><br><br>Just some thoughts,<br>Chad<br><br><br><o:p></o:p></p><pre>-----------------------<o:p></o:p></pre><pre>Chad Neeper<o:p></o:p></pre><pre>Senior Systems Engineer<o:p></o:p></pre><pre><o:p> </o:p></pre><pre>Level 9 Networks<o:p></o:p></pre><pre>740-548-8070 (voice)<o:p></o:p></pre><pre>866-214-6607 (fax)<o:p></o:p></pre><pre><o:p> </o:p></pre><pre>-- Full LAN/WAN consulting services --<o:p></o:p></pre><pre>-- Specialized in libraries and schools --<o:p></o:p></pre><p class=MsoNormal><br><br>Mike Hensel wrote: <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>OPLIN Libraries:<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I’m wondering if anyone knows of a free software that can be used to backup data on a Windows 2008 R2 server being used as a file share server?
