Re: Finding backup device

2000-05-12 Thread Don Foy

Thanks Matthew, I'd really like to try that, but the manual won't install on
the server, something about entering safe mode or something (remember, I'm a
Mac guy trying to deal with an NT client and have no idea what's going on
here).

When I try to download the windows manual, it comes in an exe file. Is there
any way to get a pdf copy of the windows manual so that I can read in on my
Mac.

I don't have access to any other Windows machine that I can try this on.

Thanks.

Don

PS: I'll call tech support when they open.

 Don,
 
 Take a look at p. 188 of the Retrospect User's Guide. If that doesn't help,
 give us a call.

 Subject: Finding backup device
 
 Ok, Mac guy in a Windows world question.
 
 Have a Windows NT client station that I have installed Retrospect 5.0 on.
 Can't upgrade to 5.1 yet because have no internet on machine and no way to
 network it with rest of the place, which is all Macs.
 
 When I go to set Retrospect up, it says it can't find a backup device. The
 HP Colorado 8GB Travan atapi drive installed in the machine (generic box,
 Intel processor) is on the list of supported drives, but does not show up in
 the CONFIGURE: DEVICES panel.
 
 With Mac and SCSI I have never had any problems with situations like this,
 but I don't want to start messing with this particular machine as I know
 squat about Windows NT and this is our main circulation server (Not an NT
 Server, just client acting as a server using peer-to-peer sharing). If I
 screw it up, they kill me.
 
 Any help here or do I need to head straight to Dantz Tech Support?
 
 Thanks
 
 Don
