Hello.
Please I would like to receive information about this.
I've read that I can uninstall ntbackup from a SBS 2003 SP1
installation by doing the following, but instruction were incomplete:
click on control panel / install applications / add remove programs
/ small business server 2003; this makes the sbs installation wizard
start; go on untill you reach a window where you can choose which
component to install / maintain / remove.
There you change server tools to maintenance and then? There I can't
find any option specifically regarding ntbackup but an option to
remove administration tools (and more options regarding network,
intranet site, monitoring, client distribution, exchange server and
fax). Should I set it to remove and this will remove ntbackup
altoghether or am I missing something?

May I ask why you are trying to do this in the first place? What's the point? You don't need to remove NTBackup if you don't want to use it. Just install whatever backup software you *do* want to use.

Regardless, you might want to post in microsoft.public.windows.server.sbs.



My thoughts, exactly. Only thing I can think of is that the OP wants to prevent someone from running NTBACKUP. In that case, maybe restricting access to the NTBACKUP.EXE file??
