Has there been any discussion or development on an Amanda client that can
run on a Windows box?  I have never looked at the source for Amanda nor the
windows backup API, so this might be a stupid question.  I just thought
asking would be a good starting point.

The Amanda/samba solution does not work well for my Exchange Server.  It
also has limited ability to filter out files that I do not want backed up.
It is very limiting to have to explicitly exclude files or directories when
doing a samba backup.  I have quite a few NT servers that I would love to
backup with Amanda and ax the crappy Backup Exec program we are using.  But
with functionality being where it is currently in Amanda, I am afraid I have
no choice.

Thanks for your answers.

Michael
