I have a Tape Drive (HP Sure Store DAT Drive) on my SCO UNIX Server. now can i take a backup of data on other servers like Novell Servers & Linux Servers which are running on the same LAN.

i have Tape drive only on UNIX SERVER with that i should be able to take backup of NOvell Server, NT Server & Linux Server.

Is it possible ?

Yes it is possible. How you do it depends on what software you use. For example, if you are using ArcServe, you would need to purchase an Enterprise license and the required agents (Novell Agent, NT Agent, Linus Agent). I believe you'd need to install the appropriate agent on each server, then the software should see each server and you can back them all up from one server.

I've not tried this before but could you just simply mount the directories from the other servers onto your UNIX server and back them up that way? Seems to me the simplest solution.
Good luck!
