Backup Exec 7.3

[Seth_Mitchell]

I know this is probably a ridiculous question, but does any know if backup exec 7.3 can be used with microsoft server 2003?

If not is there an upgrade i can purchase instead of having to purchase another full version?

Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give.

W2K3 requires v9.0.4454 (see http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/252678.htm )

Veritas doesn't even sell v9 anymore, but you can usually find a few serials on EBay or ISellSurplus.com
