I didn't, don't know about Gary. Except for MS-Office, Eudora, and a
web browser, all of these systems were fairly plain-jane. All of the
applications are shut down too.
Gary, are you using OS9 Multiple users?
I have a good question for Dantz that I think everyone should know,

Hi David,
Thanks for your comments. You raise some very valid issues, but I probably
wasn't verbose enough to adequately describe my strategy.

I had a Mac that repeated the problem every night until I went up and
rebooted it. After about 4-5 days, it started again. These are all
single user machines and are semi-secured when the user is not
sitting in front of them. At night, all the doors are locked.

Those are every 6 minutes. I too, thought it was the users not
quiting Eudora because Eudora has that "Say OK to alerts after 2
minutes", but I trained my users to quit all applications every night.

Don't quote me on this, but I think it is the source. That is, the

Which would make the most sense because that is the real number that
people need to look at.

The performance is based on the raw number of MB transferred to the backup
device from the source volume.
BEFORE software compression?
I ask since as I understand it remote clients compress before shipping
to the Retrospect module that doing the writing to the device.
Thanks

Yes, these are numbers before compression. The client does not compress data
before sending it across the network. Further, Retrospect has no way to know
what kinds of compression you're getting if you're using hardware
compression. All number reported reflect the raw data being copied from the

Hi all,
On a mailing list I inhabit, the quality of Retrospect's encryption
was challenged as being inadequate. The comment was that neither DES
or Dantz' proprietary Vernam cipher would be secure from a serious
attempt to retrieve stolen backup data.
What's the scoop here? I've been
What's the scoop here? I've been running on the assumption that if I
lost a tape under mysterious circumstances that the information would
be unrecoverable.
Nothing is unrecoverable if you have enough time. So the real question
is how long would the various choices take to crack.

I'm SO embarrassed to have missed this, but YES I've used Retrospect
under NT 4.0/SP4-6 with my OverlandData LXBD7110R for about 2 years (started
w/ Dantz's Gama product). I typically run a combination of disk/tape, and
it works GREAT! I even occasionally have the server auto-restart,

I'm running retrospect 5.15 on a pc running win2k, scorpion drive backing

The mailing list will be moving to be hosted on another machine within the
