Hi Gary,
I've never tried to backup a raw device with the Win client. I have just
backed up a win NTFS partition as a raw device, with the Linux Client.
So, this procedure allow to fully restore the system, but it is not very
interesting since it needs to reboot your windows under Linux to do the
backup. To do things this way, it is probably more interesting to use
the BartPE CD, so you can do the same, and even browse your backup.
Regards,
Ludovic Strappazon

I need a sanity check -- please. I have not been successful in getting
a raw Windows partition backup to work with Bacula 1.36.3. No matter
how I code the include file name (e.g., "/dev/sda1") the winbacula fd
reports back a failure to stat, with the associated Windows message
reporting the specified file/directory doesn't exist. I found an
archived list message from Ludovic Strappazon talking about this a bit,
but so far I've been unable to contact him for clarification. I've done
some digging in the code and even installed the full cygwin to do some
additional research, but I haven't figured it out yet.
Before I really get serious about source-level debugging, is _anyone_
successfully backing up Windows raw partitions with winbacula 1.36.3??
