Re: samba and NT backups
I would definitely consider a dedicated backup subnetwork to isolate the backup traffic from "standard" net traffic.
Costs would only be extra NICS, appropriate network devices (hubs, routers, etc.) and network media.
Could be relatively "painless" if the number of servers to be backed up is low.
Rgds,
Jeff

Re: samba and NT backups
I thought you needed to purchase NT OB2 licenses. Are you saying that since we are running OB2 3.10 that we wouldn't need to purchase an NT agent license?

Re: samba and NT backups
That is exactly what I am saying. At OB2 2.55 and below the licensing was a function of the number of actively spinning tape drives (media agents) and attached clients. Starting at OB2 3.0, the licensing is only dependent upon the number of ACTIVE tape drives. There is a wrinkle in that a UNIX tape drive is not considered an NT tape drive so that if you want to back up to NT tape drives you will need a license for each one. If you simply want to backup from any number of NT boxes to tape drives on your existing UNIX boxes, you are all set. Install the disk agent and core package from your CD to each NT box. I would then download and install the latest NT patch (it looks just like another install). You need to make sure that each NT box can address the Cell Server and any other UNIX boxes that have the attached media agents by hostname and that the reverse is true as well. You then go to your Cell Server and Import each NT host and you are ready.
