Hi all,
I've seen this problem and I'm not sure what's causing it.
I use Retro 4.3 on the Mac and have Win 98 PCs with the 5.1.5
client. When I set them up *in Retrospect*, I gave them a name like
"<hostname>@<room number>". The PC itself is given the name
"<hostname>"
On some of the laptops, all of a sudden they stop responding to
the "backup server" script. When I got to the Clients and click on
the user in question, I get the message to the effect that:
"<hostname>@<room number>" found: renamed to "<hostname>".
I've reset the name to the format I originally wanted, but then it
happens again.
What's causing this? I've always assumed that if the "backup
server" wasn't finding them, it meant they were "off" -- but now they
aren't off -- they are just getting "renamed" and, as such, the
script isn't finding them anymore.
But I can guarantee the end user isn't renaming his client.
Any thoughts on this?
- Steve
