As long as you're backing up files from his home, you should just be able to
restore it to any folder on your office server, then send the file to him at
home. Without the proper information though, you're pretty much on your own
with that.

Why would it affect other users?

Individual file restore? Can't your backup system handle that?

What's scary here is that I have customers, some of which are paid minimum
wage, who know how to do this.

To be fair...most backup software is not geared for single file
restore, or worse yet, restore a file to a different location.

But at the same time, if you want to play network admin you
should be able to figure it out - or pay someone to do it for
you.

Veritas doesn't seem to be very friendly in that department. Although I have
been able to backup a single file, it takes time to queue it up and get it to
where you want it.

I totally agree, one of the major tasks of a NetAdmin is, and always should be,
Data Backup and Restore. That is what the entire job revolves around. If ya
can't manage to handle that, then ya should just take up Basket Weaving. (I sell
the kits for $20)
