I'm using XP Pro backup utility to run scheduled backups of selected files

across a network to an external hard drive. I checked to make sure all the

folders/files were checked to backup. I did a test restore to a temp folder

to see if the backup worked. The folders were there, but no files whatsoever,

anywhere, local files nor remote files. I've checked all the settings I can

find but can't see where anything is set up wrong. Does anyone have any

suggestions. Thanks in advance for your help.

    What kind of backup? Normal? Incremental?
