- Hello,
-
- Anyone else had problems with Arcserve not connecting to non-host servers
- to do backups? I've just installed it, and am finding that it only works
- for a server other than the host if you are attached to that server. And
- it won't work at all in unattended mode.
-
- In unattended mode the error message is "Failed to login to nw-ccen-1
- as supervisor - No such file or directory,5 Check fileserver, login
- id and password".
- - we are all on the same network (same network number)
- - it is not an error in typing names or passwords!
-
- In attended mode, if you are not attached to the target server you
- cannot even edit the form to submit the job, as it says that the
- servername/path is invalid. Pressing <insert> shows only the local
- host and it's floppy drives. If you do attach to the target server
- before running arcserve admin then you can backup the server in this
- way, volume by volume.
-
- We have an EISA 486, 16Mg RAM, Netware 3.11, Adaptec 1740 in standard
- mode, HP35470A 2Gb Dat drive, Arcserve 4.0. We use ethernet 802.3
- and I have tried lots of shells on the workstation submitting the
- jobs (pdipx, ipxodi and straight ipx) in case that was relevant, to
- no avail.
-
- Clues?
