[comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc] Backup software

I'm posting this for a friend of mine:

We have some problems with PCBackup (PCTools 5.0) and we like to
know if there are any better (reliable) packages.

We have the following hardware setup:
HP Vectra 386 and Compaq

MS-DOS 3.3/4.01 and in the near future Novell.

Questions:
1) What is the best backup program (on floppy's) for this setup ?

2) Are there any Novell compatible backup systems ?

3) What is the best system for Novell using tapes (not too expensive) ?

Thanks in advance.

Remco.

I use the PCBackup with PCTools 6.0 and am very satisfied and I
have a Vectra 386 with Novell. The backup program in 6.0 has
several improvements over 5.0 which I used to use.
