Hy- i changed the option in server 1.41 from c,d to ALL - but the first test with a client with 1.4.1 32 bit
trys to backup the mbr from cdrom ( as seen in logfile)
I think that is a bug - because nobody wants to backup a local CDR drive ?!
Thanks - but i recommend that you add an option “fixed” which only backup all internal ntfs formated fixed hard drives. Because in companys the admin perhaps don’t want to backup private owned usb sticks.
On the internet you can find an article “Getting a list of logical and physical drives from the command line”
perhaps this helps to diffentiate fixed disk and removable disk
example to list all drives
wmic logicaldisk get caption,description,drivetype,providername,volumename
Thanks
Thanks - i have no idea in which programming language your fabolous programm is created - i wonder if you can use this function
“GetDriveType function”
hy -it is ok for now - But as an admin i would not like to backup the private stick with private data from users - normally the users did not think that it can happen that their stick is backed up without notice.
In our company i only use the hidden backup - because users did not have the knowledge to make the right decisions- so i prefer to set the correct settings only on the server.
Think about a big USB Stick which is exchanged beetween some PC’s - this stick will be backed up many times on different pc’s(because the backup all options only check for NTFS.
I recommend an option with the name “fixed” or something like this.
