I love Backup Exec as it has saved my job on several occasions, but I need to backup a couple of linux boxes as well as my normal Win2K servers. How can I backup a linux box and retain file permissions with Backup Exec.
 
I would create a cron job that will tar all of the directories and files that you want to backup into a single tar file every night. I would then use the Backup Exec Agent for Unix to backup the single tar file.
