I'm looking for a program to backup my Windows Server 2003 and I liked Norton Ghost, but its not for a server class operating system. I need it to be able to split into 4.5gb size and be able to boot incase of a system crash.

Thank you,

Acronis TrueImage is much better than Ghost, at least to me. Their basic package will b***h about server class OS if you try to run it's windows-based client, but if you boot off their linux-based bootable CD it'll do what you need without a hitch. It's a slick cd actually, nice gui and pretty fast too.

Forgot to mention that it support USB, FireWire, DVD, CD, and LAN (FTP or SMB/CIFS) as destination points for the backups, and with the bootable CD you should be able to restore a dead system in no time. The CD pretty much recognizes all SATA, LAN, and pretty much everything else...I had an issue with a new version of the Intel SATA controller but all I had to do was update the app and burn a new CD to boot from.

I couldn't find the linux based cd. The only thing I see similar would be the Acronis True Image 9.1 Server for Linux. Is that it?
