Registry entry, servers are listed in hex. Change the servers on one machine Run regedit Export HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VERITAS\NetBackup\CurrentVersion\Config then remove all but the "Server"= as below then import that .reg file on all your windows clients. Make sure your final .reg file looks like this just the 1 entry for Server"

I'm afraid I'm rather UNIX-centric. I've recently inherited a large number of windows client that need updates to the media servers that they'll talk to. Since windows doesn't use a 'bp.conf' file like UNIX, is there some way of scripting an update to the list? Right now I'm having to do it by hand, logging into each one. Right now none of the members of the existing list can communicate with the clients (isolated network). So whatever I'm going to do will have to be local. I'm guessing there's not a single file with this information, but maybe a registry setting or something? Thanks for any suggestions. -- Darren _______________________________________________ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu _______________________________________________ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
