* - Data recovery directly from an FTP server will require the archive to consist of files no
more than 2GB in size, so please note this during the backup image creation. It is
recommended that you change the source computer firewall settings to disable the
Routing and Remote Access Windows service. The previous versions of the software
recommended for the target FTP server the usage of passive mode for file transfers and
usage of ports 20 and 21 at the source computer for both TCP and UDP protocols. The
current version has no such limitations: you can use active or passive mode and any port,
changing the default settings at Options->Backup Options->Advanced settings.
** - Burned rewritable discs cannot be read in Linux without kernel patch.
