I'm just beginning to look at this for backing up a server for a group of
Windows users.

For very small systems (which mine is) it looks like a Travan tape drive and
some clever scripts are all that is required.

My server will be headless so I'm intending sending emails to a user asking
for tape changes and reporting problems etc.

Colin
