Rob, we want to move away from tape backups which we had been doing
previously with NTBackup and ArcserveIT but are restricted in our options
because Exchange 5.5 is running on a Windows NT 4.0 Server.
I am using ExMerge already to supplement BackupPC with an approximation of
the old ArcserveIT br

Peter, thank you for pointing us to winexe - it looks like this is what we
would want but we are unable to implement right now due to compatibility

I have just installed backuppc on a Ubuntu 8.04 system. I am
attempting to back it up to a 500GB external USB drive. I intend to run
daily incremental backups after that.
