I have a small backup (2 specific folders) that I do with NTBACKUP in
WS2003. I understand that NTBACKUP is replaced in WS2008 with a backup
applet that is more like Vista's backup applet...with less granular backup
selections than NTBACKUP.

Anyone know if the new backup applet allows me to select specific folders
for backup?

Re: WS2008 Backup Applet

Had my question answered elsewhere; I'll pass it along for others with the
same question. WS2008's backup will not let you select specific folders for
backup.

Re: WS2008 Backup Applet

Hello Jeff Vandervoort" jeffv jrvsystems dot com,

Yes, that's right but you can download a ntbackup for 2008, which allows
you to use the files created with the old ntbackup.

Best regards

Re: WS2008 Backup Applet

True...but irrelevant. One still can't select individual folders for backup
in WS2008's backup applet. Nor can one back up using the NTBACKUP download
at all...only restore.
