I don't know how far the TNG BDC functionality goes. But, knowing the
_security_ in my school, we're using NT in our old room and w2k in the new
room(which really sux and fouls up with maple V and stuff :) ), we don't do
any backups. :)
If you would like to have a filesever, though, you should use another
version of samba, because TNGs file serving capabilities are not really
good, IIRC.
