I have a classic Firewall with 3 networks : LAN, DMZ and Internet I have added a MacOS machine on the DMZ, while the Backup server is on the LAN, and I want to backup this machine. As expected, Retrospect can't see the remote client. Which port(s) does Retrospect Backup use to communicate with t

Hi Xavier, Retrospect only communicates over port 497. If the machine in the DMZ has a static IP address, and you log it in that way, then only TCP/IP communication is required. Otherwise, UDP multicast packets must be allowed on port 497 as well, in order for Retrospect to "discover" the client

Hi Wade, When you open the Clients on Network window, Retrospect only sends out its UDP query for systems on the local subnet--it does not try to connect with clients in other subnets which are logged in directly by IP address or DNS name until specific communication with that client is initiated

Just as a note, I was backing up my Tangerine iBook (color is the most important feature, right?) over 100 BaseT to a FireWire hard drive on my desktop computer and saw over 200 MB/min transfers for the entire backup. If you have a mixed 10 and 100 network, it makes sense to get everyone over to
