makofski Posted December 3, 2003 Report Share Posted December 3, 2003 Hi Alll With Redhat discontinuing their free Linux distributions we are looking to change our OS. However, one of the issues is all our Linux systems are backed-up using Retrospect. With that in mind I am looking for something that will still allow me to still use Retrospect. I see that Debian is "supported", however, are there any other versions of linux that will work as well (i.e FreeBSD, slackware, etc) and any issues that could jump up and bite me. Just looking for info, before we jump to something else. Thanks Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnbot Posted December 11, 2003 Report Share Posted December 11, 2003 Hello Dave, If it's any help, I've installed the most current redhat client rpm on fedora and it works great so far. without any tweaks. http://fedora.redhat.com/ John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
today Posted January 17, 2004 Report Share Posted January 17, 2004 Quote: I see that Debian is "supported" Remember that no stable version of Debian is supported or "supported". Who knows why Dantz won't do a recompile on the stable version of Debian? It makes no sense to me. It would be greatly helpful if they would release the source to the Linux client so we can make it run wherever we need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
today Posted January 17, 2004 Report Share Posted January 17, 2004 Quote: no stable version of Debian is supported or "supported". I found a rebuild for woody burried here at the bottom of this thread in the MacOSX section. I have problems with it dropping the connection in the middle of the backup, but it might work out for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
