My small business network is all windows 98 and windows me machines. I'm looking for a solution to backup these machines to one central machine with a large HDD. These pc's have static IP addresses. We also want to backup pc's at a remote location through a VPN tunnel that also have static IP addresses. We are not interested in backing up the entire machine just by extensions or folders.

We have a solution that is specifically targeted toward small businesses and was designed to backup remote users. It is a Veritas product that we have adapted to the internet. It allows our clients to backup their data to our server. There is no media manage and everything is automated. Data recovery is a matter of a couple mouse clicks and a user name and password. We use several layers of security during the data backup and also to protect the server and the data on the server. I would like to discuss this with you further, over the phone or through e-mail.

Try looking at one of NovaStor's products. I have used their network product in a similar way on a previous job. All you need to be able to do is to map a drive on your backup PC to each of the drives you want to back up. You could then create a procedure (by point and click) which only includes the folders you need on each drive. Then set a schedule and sit back and let it do the work: it will even clear the space on your big hard-drive each time if you want.
I also use one of their products on my laptop to back up all the data on a weekly basis.
I have no commercial connection with them other than being a very satisfied customer for their incredibly easy to use products.
