How can I make a raw file backup to a remote device?

I use Veritas Backup Exec for Windows servers (small business server suite) to backup up to a tape drive. This works OK.

However, what I also want to do is to copy files to a remote Buffalo terastation. However I try to do this, Veritas makes a compressed Windows Backup file, wheres I simply want the raw files copied.

Is this possible and how do I do it?

Thanks for your help

Hello,

It seems that you do not want to create bkf files, however backup exec creates bkf files.
There is another product called CPS which copies data continuously to the protection server from business server.
Please verify the setup for CPS by referrring to the admin guide:

If this does not serve your purpose please revert.
