hi all;

does windows 2000 svr has a limitation on the levels of
subfolders that can be backed up ?

my backup software, Veritas BE, is behaving strangely,
folders were backed up but are empty folders. but however
and strangely, it affects only a small portion of the
entire folders selections.

No.

Also, the OS does not directly provide backup services; it provides a file
system for access and some backup API's/flags that help with ACLs. The
FileSystem (NTFS in this case) provides access to the files for whomever is
asking (backup apps, Explorer, etc.).
