we are using a Windows server as the main server in our organization. Now we need to take the backup of that windows server in a Linux machine. Backup is of two types incremental and full backup. Please, guys, suggest to me how can I set up backup. Thanks.

    I want to take full backup of a windows server and store it in a linux server. – John The Hacker Jan 20 '20 at 10:33

    So? Taking a backup: Solved. Storing files on linux in a means windows can access: solved. What is the problem? – TomTom Jan 20 '20 at 10:42

    I want to know how to take the backup, in Linux we can use rsync but in this case, what should I do. – John The Hacker Jan 20 '20 at 10:52

    You need to try something, many ways to do backups. Buy a product, read documentation, modify some (possibly open source) scripts. For opinionated advice customized to your environment, hire a consultant. – John Mahowald Jan 20 '20 at 13:59

You need a backup solution, which can use Linux server as backup repository. Or you can configure CIFS(SMB) on Linux and most of backup solutions can utilise SMB.

For example VEEAM B&R can use Linux repositories - https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/hyperv/linux_server.html?ver=95u4
