Backuppc is not quite a "client server" application as you initially wanted, as it does not have a requirement to install anything on the client, in most cases. However it will backup both Unix and Windows clients. Amanda might fit your bill for client-server type application, but depending on your specific needs, backuppc might just be what you are looking for. You asked how to download? Here - http://sourceforge.net/projects/backuppc/files/ You need the BackupPC-3.2.0beta0.tar.gz <http://sourceforge.net/projects/backuppc/files/backuppc-beta/3.2.0beta0/BackupPC-3.2.0beta0.tar.gz/download> and you need a Unix box with perl installed. Most Unix boxes have by default. It will require samba libraries to backup Win32 clients. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "If you have nothing good to say about someone, just shut up!." -- Lucky Dube
