Yes. You need to agent accelerator. You need to buy one and install it for each server you are backing up (except for the one that has the actual BE installed on it)

What version of BE? -----Original Message----- From: Mustafa Ibrahim [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, June 18, 2002 7:39 AM To: NT 2000 Discussions Subject: BackupExec and NT4/W2K Hi all, I have an NT4 server with Citrix MF 1.8 running on it. This machine has a DDS tape drive which backs up its on system data along with that of two other servers one of which is exactly the same (NT 4) and the other running Windows 2000 Server. For some reason, the backup job fails with the following error being written into the backup log: Agent Accelerator not present - performing standard backup WARNING: Backup servers cannot completely protect remote Windows 2000 servers or workstations unless the Backup Exec Agent Accelerator for Windows NT/2000 is installed and running on each remote Windows 2000 server or workstation to be protected. Data loss can occur if the Agent Accelerator for Windows NT/2000 is not running while backing up remote Windows 2000 computers. What I would like to know is wether or not having the accelerator agent on my remote Win2K server is a MUST to reslove this, or the agent is only for improving the throughput for backup performance efficiency, and not necessarily the resolution for this fault. I thought the problem might have been to do with name resolution, but I have since then made sure the all servers had WINS (which we use anyway)and DNS configurations and have even configured Hosts files on these machine just to be sure. Needless to say, I can ping and communiocate with these machine both via netbios name and IP address just fine. Any ideas?. Many thanks.
