Re: Retrospect on Mac OS X (server)
Hi all, Apple has said that Mac OS X Server, as it exists it today, will be replaced by a new one based on their upcoming Mac OS X release. We are planning on supporting Mac OS X, and the new Mac OS X Server, with a new Carbonized release of Retrospect and the Retrospect Client currently in development. We have been participating in Apple's Developer Kitchens for Mac OS X, and we plan to ship at the same time as Mac OS X.

I can't really comment on that with any certainty, Clay. I can tell you, however, that our completing the software is very much dependent on Apple finishing their I/O toolkit for Mac OS X. We kinda need to work with devices, you know? ;-) Eric Ullman Dantz Development -- -- To subscribe:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives:http://list.working-dogs.com/lists/retro-talk/ Problems?: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Eric Ullman Dantz Development RE: I can understand holding the full retrospect client up until shipping, but I believe you should be able to provide a carbon client soon. I believe it would be acceptable if this client was not fully sanctioned for Mac OSX, and that it be deemed as Client public beta. It could also only support the HFS+ file system. This would allow us to move onto OSX in a timely fashion. If not we will have to consider competitors products.

All well and good, but as pointed out already, the driver I/O kit from Apple is crucial. Apple doesn't have a very good record of this so far with OSX. Lots of bells and whistles and aquafication, not much support for anybody who is talking to a device. Go figure. We're in the same boat with our product, which includes a PCI board. Granted, there has been recent movement with the kit, but we were asking about this a long time ago to Apple and mostly the response was "yeah, yeah, whatever". You should definitely consider a competitor's product when a solution isn't available, but make sure you tell it to -Apple- ;-) rant over.

We already have a whole mess of linux boxes just waiting for an elegant yet cost effective solution, and we're looking to build a render farm based on x86 linux... And personally, I've got the odd BSD boxen that could use it as well... FWIW, we have a developer subscription with Apple (and therefore DPs of OSX), and would be most interested in beta testing either client or server, if such assistance should be needed... ;-) Regards, Ed Hintz Geek Guy [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- -- To subscribe:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives:http://list.working-dogs.com/lists/retro-talk/ Problems?: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
