Can anyone recommend some systems, with pointers to the companies making them, and give me any other advice you may have relating to the subject of automated backups. Ideally, we would like a system that sits on the ethernet by itself and accesses the other machines in the network, if there is such a thing. Email responses to me and I will summarize to the group. Anything to keep bandwidth down :-). Mitch Baltuch Internet: mitchb@master.nldn.albany.edu
