So my question is: Is it really this hopeless? Anyone have any workaround? I'll gladly update my Retrospect 4.0 if it will help.

I know with Win NT machines, the APC UPS units will automatically shut the server down before they run out of power. Since I've never bought one of these for the Mac, I was hoping to get guidance on purchasing a UPS that can turn the machine off. I know that currently on my box, Retrospect won't even shut down unless I enter a password, but I can change that if I need to do so. Has anyone gotten a system like mine to work with a Mac UPS system?

Win Retrospect Licenses?
Do Retrospect for Windows client licenses work on the Mac edition and vice versa? I'm considering buying a copy of Retrospect to run on an NT system, but want to be sure I can use the license pack on my Mac version OR my NT version. -- . . . . . . . . ooo . . . . ooo . . . . . . . . . . . .Dean Brissinger - Systems Administrator. .

Troubleshooting Regcopy
I get a failure while trying to copy the registry on a few of my NT machines. However, it just says "Registry Copy Unsuccessful". How can I troubleshoot this and get my registry to back up? I have one NT Workstation doing this, and one NT Terminal Server. They share nothing in common that I'm aware of. -- . . . . . . . . ooo . . . . ooo . . . . . . . . . . . .Dean Brissinger - Systems Administrator. . Direct: 303-583-0278 Main: 303-444-0094 . .

Backup hangs
Hello the list, I'd appreciate some advice on a problem I'm having in getting Retrospect working. I have so far just tried doing an immediate backup, but it stops running sometime shortly after it starts. The time it takes to fail is variable but seems to be around 60 Mb into the first volume. The writing light goes out and the progress indicator stops changing. I can click the Pause and Continue buttons OK, but if I click Stop the program becomes unavailable. The system quickly becomes unstable and I have to reboot. When I do this I get a message saying that there is a problem with the cache, and telling me to delete the cache, cookies and history folders before restarting IE (bizarre, since I'm not even using IE on my system). These folders seem to contain little of interest apart from files called mm2048.dat and mm256.dat. I have to stop the Retrospect launcher service before I can delete these files and folders. I can then start Retrospect again. System details: I am using Retrospect Workgroup backup on a Dell Dimension PII 266 with 128 MB RAM. I am running Windows NT WS 4.0 SP3 on this box. I have two network clients - one running NT and the other an iMac running MacOS 9 (though the problem occurs even when I am only trying to back up the PC where Retrospect is installed). I am backing up to a CD-R on a Yamaha CRW4416S (on the compatibility list on the web), and using TDK media. I can write CD-Rs and CD-RWs with the Adaptec software with no problems. Any help or pointers much appreciated - I've lost 5 CD-Rs yesterday working on this and I'm reluctant to try it again until I know more. I've mailed this to support@dantz too, BTW.
