Have also a look at Acronis Backup & Recovery. The beauty of this backup software is that if you make a backup of your total system (OS included) , it can be restored on every other computer system and it all works immediately after the restore.
Even if you make use of an very old machine. Of course no performance, but it works. This saves a lot of time in case of hardware failure Pay attention you pick the right version. The simple version does not include this option.

Get one for everyday in the week and simply download first thing in the morning. Also have tape backup of the network, but USB is quick.

You can set up an auto backup of your server to your individual PC's. Backup up to a different PC each day of the week. This way you will have the latest 5 copies. Another inexpensive method is to purchase an external dirve (some of my customers bought it at Costco) to be connected to some PC via usb. Set up five folders on that drive called Mon, Tues, etc. Of course I don't know how large your database is so you have to figure out the best method. Good luck, Bernie Lis ----- Original Message ----- From: Dan Goldberg <mailto:[email protected]> To: RBASE-L Mailing List <mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, June 16, 2010 10:31 AM Subject: [RBASE-L] - OT: backup software I am looking for a good backup software to run on a server. I know there is some like Symantec(VERITAS) backup but they are expensive. TIA Dan Goldberg
