+!Update, March 2010

+I'm gratified there is still interest in a four-year-old article, but obviously times move on. If I were to do this again today, I would look at using [Samba with ZFS|http://www.edplese.com/samba-with-zfs.html]. I also don't have a copy of the scripts handy (they were last seen on the server of my old employer in NZ), but if I find them, I will link them from this article. — CraigBox

!What are shadow copies?
[Shadow copies of shared folders|http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/techinfo/overview/scr.mspx] are point-in-time snapshots of a shared folder that are exposed to Windows 2000+ users by way of the "Previous Versions" tab on a shared file.
