this is a stupid decision, let they go. AFAIK, Windows 2000 does not
support dump file system to tape or other medias. I was a Windows NT
system manager, I know I don't believe all backup softwares for Windows
NT, simply because Windows NT system can not be fully backuped.
FreeBSD can do, it's strength of Unix File System.
