How we did it

We used an HP Omnibook 6100 laptop running Windows 2000 professional as our laptop test bed. The laptop included a CD-RW drive, 30G-byte hard drive, built-in 56K bit/sec modem, 10/100M bit/sec network and integrated 802.11b wireless connections.

We loaded all the server software on a Compaq Proliant 5500 running Windows 2000 Server. We used the products to back up our laptop, and then we restored selected files, as well as trying out any total system restore options. We backed up over our local 100M bit/sec network, as well as over DSL connections. To try out the back-up service we did a restore using a 56K modem and using the laptop's wireless capability through the DSL connection.
