Legato also has scaling issues. if you're backing up 100 machines, you probably won't hit it. Also the internal database the use to track things blows & often gets corrupted. Given the expense and the scaling issues, I'd go with something else. I've had luck with veritas & amanda in the past on smaller sites. -- ------- Tom Buskey ***************************************************************** To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the text 'unsubscribe gnhlug' in the message body. *****************************************************************
