Hi,

Running AS2K Advanced edition but having difficuly backing up our BDC's with it. I keep getting 'Unable to backup file as it is in use by another process' messages on files like wins.mdb, dhcp.mdb etc. It screws up my backups as they always finish incomplete. Can anyone recommend a method of getting these files backed up or do I have no choice but to buy the Open File Agent?

Suggestions most welcome.
 
You could stop the WINS/DHCP services as a pre backup task, then restart them as a post backup task?? -----------------------------------------------------
