Log Shipping and Backup Jobs = Conflict?

Can we run log shipping alongside our backup plan?
The concern is that the full backup runs overnight and
then diff backups run during the day and at the same time
log shipping occurs every 30 mins - don't both jobs
require the resetting of the archive bit specifying when
the last trn backup took place?
Many thanks in advance for the help, Rgds, Simon.As long as the ONLY log backups are done through log shipping you should be
fine...Whole and differential backups do NOT affect the transaction log...
