Hey Ollivier, good to hear from you. :) Thanks for the tip, we got that up and loaded and it works great. I had to install the aout compat libraries, but other than that (and the weird error below) it seems to be working fine. The one nit is an error in the legato nsrd log. NetWorker: Unable to contact system to determine port ranges: hostname.NetWorker: RPC error, Port mapper failure (severity 4, number 14) In spite of that error message the nsr client/server seems to be working, I'm just curious if anyone knew what the error meant. I halfway suspect that the nsrd is sending some weird, proprietary RPC command that our portmapper doesn't understand, but I thought I'd pick the collective brain a bit. (Yes, we're contacting legato, but any sentence that includes the words "operating system other than sun" ends in, "we don't support that.") Also, to add insult to injury the nsrd can't connect to the client to do the restore at all. It is able to read the info from the client (freebsd) machine, but we have to do a "restore" locally then transfer the files to the test machine.
