This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the
opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards
deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least
20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per
page).
Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50
topics per page, while others deemed of historical
signifigance may be archived in their entirety.
We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but
we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in
lieu of that.
Please enjoy the archive. ~

Subject:Backup Tool
I've been using Deltacopy (which is an rsync port to Windows) for my backups. What do you all use? I'm looking to change since I frequently have permissions issues with this tool.
I currently backup to a Windows 2008 server running CIFS and NFS services.

I have a license good for three years for Backup Exec System Recovery. I'm so spoiled (yay having the sales people in your corner/on speed dial/threw them many bones over the years).
But I know that's not realistic for most people. The native Windows and Unix/Linux tools are perfectly adequate really - and free. Took me like 30 minutes to create a system disk for a friends system and schedule weekly backups to his NAS or whatever he has for his Windows 7 laptop. Bare metal restores would get dodgy but for everything else, meh.
Actually I wonder if you can mount them and extract individual files? Shouldn't be difficult. Or at least, it should be doable.
