Mountain View, Ca. Lines: 24 We here use a very nive networked backup system called "budtool(BackUp Daemon Tool) from Delta Microsystems in Livermore Calif. Their phone is (415) 449-6881. We do nightly -0- backups of 10 Gbytes of machines. Without a hitch. Has an incredibly felxible timing mechanism, history mechanisms, scheduling tools, labeling tools, tape testing tools, and is affordable. We've got no releationship with them, than a very satisfied customer<->vendor relationship. They have always answered calls promptly, provided bug fixes promptly, and are generally very nice folks. The Legato Networker was evaluated here. We already had too much invested in Delta Micro's solution to justify using it. -- Steven C. Blair Network Operations Center SynOptics Communications Inc.
