Hi,
I'm a newbie to Backup Exec. I've just downloaded and installed BESR on my laptop. I'm looking for a backup solution for my laptop that has the ability to backup to a remote server, so for instance when I'm on the road my laptop will backup over the Internet to a server at my office.
I think Backup Exec has this feature in the form of "Offsite Copy" using FTP to transfer my backup files? Is this the only way to achieve backing up to a remote location when I'm on the road travelling?
Please can someone also confirm whether it is correct that you can only perform an "Offsite Copy" if performing a full disk-based backup? The problem I have is a backup of my hard disk will be around 200Gb so it is totally unthinkable to try and FTP 200Gb over the Internet to my FTP server!!! What I'd much prefer to do is select specific files/folders of high importance that contain for example 50Mb of data in total, then just FTP that to my office, but I can't see any way to add Offsite Copy to a file/folder backup. I can't figure out why this option isn't there for file/folder backups. Can someone explain, or tell me where I'm going wrong if it is possible?
Many thanks in advance,
Matt
