ntbackup.exe under wine on ubuntu 13.04

[yvesbodson]

I have installed wine under ubuntu 13.04 and it works great. However I want to restore old windows backup using the exe ntbackup.exe that is accompanied with two dll. Under windows it works from anywhere but I could not find out how to or where to install in under ubuntu wine to have it running and accessing the archives created under windows.
When I try to run it I get as follow:
yves@yves-server:~/Documents$ cd files
yves@yves-server:~/Documents/files$ ls
ntbackup.exe ntmsapi.dll vssapi.dll
yves@yves-server:~/Documents/files$ wine start ntbackup.exe
fixme:exec:SHELL_execute flags ignored: 0x00000100
yves@yves-server:~/Documents/files$ err:module:import_dll Library MFC42u.DLL (which is needed by L"Z:\\home\\yves\\Documents\\files\\ntbackup.exe") not found
err:module:import_dll Library SYSSETUP.dll (which is needed by L"Z:\\home\\yves\\Documents\\files\\ntbackup.exe") not found
err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"Z:\\home\\yves\\Documents\\files\\ntbackup.exe" failed, status c0000135

If it doesn't need to be installed, you should be able to run it from any location.

yves@yves-server:~/Documents/files$ err:module:import_dll Library MFC42u.DLL (which is needed by L"Z:\\home\\yves\\Documents\\files\\ntbackup.exe") not found

Install mfc42 with winetricks.

yvesbodson there is a conversion tool for Windows backups. Running a restore under wine does have some other issues due to wine not being windows. Just had to mention there are many who think ntbackup is the only way to access those archives. Yes converting them does cost some disc space.

Cool I will look for these conversion tools and thanks for the info.
