We do it for some small machines. It works. The answer is, of course "it
depends on your situation."
These are small machines that aren't terribly critical - if we lost one, we
could take 24 hours to rebuild it and the users would still be happy (give

Works for us We back up 20-25 small NT based nodes scattered around the

connections. We run with client compression on and overall average about 1
GB per hour on a single T1. Again not something you would want to do for

I've backed up NT boxes from Atlanta GA into Tulsa OK (I'm pretty sure the

they run fine but my network speeds are a little better
