I have a four XP machines in a dental office. All machines have the ability to read DVD's but only one has a DVD burner. My goal is to be able to quickly restore a system from a DVD in case of a major failure. My strategy has been to back up the C: partition on each machine to a backup partition on that same machine. Then, using my local area network, I will copy the backup files to the machine that has the DVD burner, and then burn copies of each system backup onto a DVD. I use Norton Ghost to back up each machine's C: partition to a D: partition. However, when I go to copy the Ghost backup files to my DVD burner machine using the network, I get the following message: "cannot copy Op2A001.ghs, access denied, check to see if file is in use...". Note that Norton Ghost creates multiple files when it backs up a partition that requires more than 2GB to back up. The first file (that contains the first 2GB of data) has no problem being copied to a network drive. The second file (that contains the data from 2GB
on) generates the message. If you try to copy these Ghost files to a Windows98 machine over the network, then you have no problem. Does anyone know what is going on and how I can get around this problem?
