NOTE:
Shadow Copies for Shared Folders clients are not available for HTTP, FTP, AppleTalk, or NetWare shares.
Consequently, users of these protocols cannot use Shadow Copies for Shared Folders to independently
retrieve previous versions of their
fi
les. However, administrators can take advantage of Shadow Copies
for Shared Folders to restore
fi
les for these users.
SMB shadow copies
Windows users can independently access previous versions of
fi
les stored on SMB shares by using the
Shadow Copies for Shared Folders client. After the Shadow Copies for Shared Folders client is installed
on the user’s computer, the user can access shadow copies for a share by right-clicking on the share to
open its Properties window, clicking the
Previous Versions
tab, and then selecting the desired shadow
copy. Users can view, copy, and restore all available shadow copies.
Shadow Copies for Shared Folders preserves the permissions set in the access control list (ACL) of the
original folders and
fi
les. Consequently, users can only access shadow copies for shares to which they
have access. In other words, if a user does not have access to a share, he also does not have access to
the share’s shadow copies.
The Shadow Copies for Shared Folders client pack installs a
Previous Versions
tab in the
Properties
window of
fi
les and folders on network shares.
Users access shadow copies with Windows Explorer by selecting
View
,
Copy
, or
Restore
from the
Previous Versions
tab. (See
Figure 19
). Both individual
fi
les and folders can be restored.
