The backup-to-UNC-path option is there, but the only backup type is disk volumes. It seems that the 'new' backup in 2008 R2 allows you to do file level backups again. Don't know about Exchange which is where this started, isn't it?

You can't backup to a UNC path - you can backup to a USB drive (I'm already doing this with NT Backup) but that doesn't help me with it when it's running in a VM. John W.

Curious, as I haven't looked into this yet: What about Server 2008 and later? NTBACKUP has gone away. Are the replacements worth a damn?
