Thanks. I found on Symantecs website the download for the Remote backup piece of Veritas for Linux. Veritas gives a very easy to follow instructions on how to install it. I probably just have to create the username Veritas uses to backup with on the Linux box. Theory of operation says that should work. I bought Red Hat Enterprise 4 for Dummies and it finally came in so when I get chances I been reading it.

I saw these links at RedHat about active directory and such while looking for recompiling kernel questions

It might point you to more specific articles that will help.

Thanks guys I will look into using Veritas as soon as I figure out how to get Windows and Linux to talk.

Well the idea is if I can get my CentOS box to communicate
with my Windows
2003 network I was going to do a backup and put the backup file on a

though. I haven't tackled trying to get the CentOS and
Windows to talk yet.
I have lots of reading to do on that subject yet. Thanks
for the list of
backup software.
I have not looked into this for a few years, but at the time, Veritas provided a free license for you to download/use a copy of their Unix backup agent to run on Linux. Go to their support site. If you can find a Linux agent, go ahead and use that. If not, I believe I used their generic Unix agent. This will allow you to backup your Linux server to a Backup Exec server directly.
