No Veritas support for SLES8

Our Veritas rep now tells me Veritas support for SLES8 is delayed another year and another release of Veritas. We had wanted to use the Netbackup client. But now we're told version 6.0 (previously we were told 5.0) and not until 2005. So I guess we need to look at other backup products. Any good

Since you are the only one to get it they obviously are NOT harvesting email address from this list. They probably sent the email to everyone who looked at their product but did not buy it. That seems like a reasonable thing for a company to do when they make a major enhancement to a product.
