Greg and Dustin Thanks you for your advices. I see that I must learn about IPv6 in this time. But please allow to ask next question about IPv6.
I want to use Windows XP SP2 as Amanda Client on IPv6. I know the next URL. http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Windows_client http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Backup_client#Example_configuration I think that Amanda Windows Client on the Cygwin don't work because it don't support the IPv6. So I think that i must install Cygwin IPv6 extention or use the "smbclient". Does anybody success the dump between Linux Amanda Server and Windows Client on IPv6? Please tell me. What is the best solution? Best Regards, Yoshihiro. On Jan 29, 2008 10:57 AM, Dustin J.
