No problem. Small business don't need to backup data.
Sheesh.... TL |

Actually it isn't a problem, as this is talking about CLIENT backup. Like Home Server does...
So the client PCs still backup to the server, and the server still has its OWN backup software. The only thing is that users were wanting an automated backup to pull the client computers backup automatically instead of having to set the client PCs to backup. This is basically a policy and a couple of lines of an install script that you run on the clients, and then they backup to the server. THIS IS SO NOT AN ISSUE. It was just a new feature of Home Server people hoped would make it into SBS. PERIOD. |

| Yet SBS will get an Exchange Aware version of WBS even though full Server 2008 does not. WTF is up with that? Anyone running Exchange is now forced to purchase backup software or risk running without backup, no more ntbackup.exe type stuff allowed. :( |

#3....
There is a new automated tool; however,you have been able to back up Exchange easily since Shadow Volume copying was added to NTFS... There is NOTHING that can't be backed up by the OS with NTFS's snapshot system that is exposed through the shadow copy service. |
