SUMMARY
In order to execute the Exchange version of Windows NT Backup on another
workstation to back up Exchange Server computers remotely, the following
files are required:
Ntbackup.exe
Edbbcli.dll
Backup.cnt
Backup.hlp
Installing Exchange Administrator will install the Exchange version of
Windows NT Backup and appropriate files onto the workstation. In addition,
Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 3 is required when installing the Exchange 5.5
Administrator program.
MORE INFORMATION
These files can also be copied from the correct CD-ROM into the
workstation's SYTSTEM32 directory. The Edbbcli.dll, Backup.cnt, and
Backup.hlp files can be found on the Exchange versions 4.0, 5.0, and 5.5 CD-
ROM. Ntbackup.exe can be found on the Exchange versions 4.0 and 5.0 CD-ROM
or the Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 3 CD-ROM.
Windows NT versions prior to Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 3 do not contain
an Exchange-aware version of Ntbackup.exe. Also, Exchange 5.5 does not
contain Ntbackup.exe. Thus, the Exchange 5.5 Administrator program must be
installed on a computer with Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 3. Because
Exchange versions 4.0 and 5.0 contain the Exchange-aware Ntbackup.exe, the
Administrator program can be installed on any supported version of Windows
NT.
