I hit this problem for laptops and for desktop Windows machines which
hibernate to save power, and so are not running when you might expect
to suck out their goodness overnight.
My solution is a little script which runs on the server running the
director which checks every half hour to see if these machines are up
and running and connected, and if so, and if that machine hasn't been
backed up for at least a day, starts a backup job.
If that sounds interesting, and if no one else comes up with a better
solution, I'll clean the script up and post it to the list.
