I've been using Retrospect for about a 3 months on my OSX Server. Although I only run it locally, and not to other machines on the network (which it apparently can do), it appears to do the trick for us. Scripting is also breeze.
I also recommend that you use the LaCie 'AIT' firewire drive. While the AIT tapes are a bit pricey, it will allow me to backup the 20 Gs that are presently on the Server in less than an hour. That came in real handy when I had to re-install the OS a couple of weeks ago. Hope this helps. Paul McLellan On Thursday, July 11, 2002, at 04:42 PM, Jefferson R. Lowrey wrote: > From: "Jefferson R.
