Re: Netware Client Password failure
Hi Stormy, I had the same problem with my NetWare 5.1 servers with just the same error. I solve the problem by backing off to 4.1.3 version of client and implementing Novell NetWare TSA nlms tsa5up7, witch is available for download at http://support.novell.com/servlet/filedownload/ftf/tsa5up7.exe. Now my servers are backing up normally every night.

Re: Netware Client Password failure
Hello Jim, If you have any weird punctuation in your pw ... try change the pw to exclude any punctuation ... had a problem here where removing a '.' in the pw fixed our problem. Good luck, Peter Jim Kirkman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] C.EDU> cc: Sent by: Subject: Re: Netware Client Password failure "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] RIST.EDU> 11/26/2001 02:03 PM Please respond to jim_kirkman Stormy, Have you tried deleting the existing .pwd files in the BA directory then running a manual and re-entering the info? If so, then I would recommend backing off to a 4.1 rev of the client. Also, as with any Netware problem, make sure you have the latest TSA nlms, tsa5up7 last time I checked. Are you getting prompted for the Novell username and pwd, or the TSM one? I'm having a problem on our Netware cluster nodes that's similar, scheduled backups run for a couple of nights and then fail because of a prompt for the TSM userid and pwd. This seems to be a problem since I upgraded our server from 3.1.x to 4.1.4. Very frustrating.

Netware Client Password failure
I have three TSM 4.2.1 Netware 5.0 clients that won't perform a scheduled backup. Normally when you first setup the client and register the node, the first time it prompts you to enter the Netware ID & password for the backup and stores the files. These three won't store the password. Every time you run a manual incremental or a scheduled backup, you get prompted. The error shows as: 11/21/2001 19:36:57 ANS1880E TSA Connect error, NWSMConnectToTargetService 'CTRL3' password file 'CTRL3\SYS:TIVOLI/TSM/CLIENT/BA/TSM.PWD'. Userid = 'adsm_support' failed with cc = FFFDFFD7 When you try a manual backup, the dsmerror.log writes the same thing, and on the screen you are prompted for the id & pw again. The TSM.PWD file gets updated with the same date and time. The DSM.opt file is set for passwordaccess generate and nwpwfile is set to yes. Any ideas??
