The TSM Admin Guide says that the SET AUTHENTICATION option, as used in the server option file, is used to specify whether admins and client nodes need a password to access the server... the value is set to "ON" at install.
I and one other person are the only "admins". The servers typically back up via schedule and owners of the non- Unix (I am only admin) clients such as Netware and Windows are other admins who can kick off backups or restores but do not have TSM admin privilages; only client privilages. Is there any good reason to keep the SET AUTHENTICATION YES set? George Lesho AFC Enterprises
