I am running the backupexec client on freebsd machines here at work. The veritas server is running on an old novell machine. you need to do the following: edit /etc/rc.conf and insert the line linux_enable="YES" tar xvf the backupexec unix agent file create the directory /usr/local/bkupexec we are going to use agent.linux. copy agent.cfg agent.cfg.bak agent.linux from the newly untarred bkupexec directory (or whatever it untars too I forgot) .. copy these files to the /usr/local/bkupexec directory you created. Edit /usr/local/bkupexec/agent.cfg here is a sample of a working agent.cfg name tester password blahblah export /general as GENERAL include_remote export /depot as DEPOT include_remote export /Drawings as DRAWINGS include_remote export /bob_home as BOB_HOME include_remote export /brad_home as BRAD_HOME include_remote export /michel_home as MICHEL_HOME include_remote exclude_dir /proc tell 201.201.2.9 tell 201.201.2.14 tell_interval 30 follow_symdirs exclude_dir /proc The first line is the name of the machine. the exported directories are directories on the tester machine which will show up in the veritas server under Unix Agents. Don't forget to put include_remote to include the subdirectories. tell 201.201.2.9 and tell 201.201.2.14 is letting the veritas servers be aware of us. Edit /etc/services and add the following grfs 6101/tcp #backup exec Edit /etc/rc.local #!/bin/sh /usr/local/bkupexec/agent.linux -c /usr/local/bkupexec/agent.cfg > /dev/null You'll have to enter root/blahblah from the veritas server.
