Zeigh Posted March 30, 2004 Report Share Posted March 30, 2004 Hello, I just installed Retrospect Desktop 6 on an Apple PowerMac G4 1.25 GHz DP (host backup server) and the three client licenses on other PowerMacs G5’s (all with Mac OS 10.3.3). While the host computer sees the other Macs in the Retrospect Backup Clients on Network window, I am consistently unable to log into these connected computers via this route. The error “507 incorrect password” appears. However, these same Macs are immediately accessible via the Apple Network navigation window with the EXACT same password used in Retrospect. WTF?! Since only Retrospect version 6 has been installed, I have not removed any Library/Preference files as suggested for version 5.1. As it is now, Retrospect Desktop is dead in the water, even before it can be used on a Network! Please tell me that there is a simple solution... If we learn from our mistakes, then I obtained my PhD years ago, Dr. Z. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfigucio Posted March 30, 2004 Report Share Posted March 30, 2004 Do you have any non-alphanumeric characters in the password? Maybe that causes the problem. I am not sure about this - its just a stab in the dark... d. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeigh Posted March 30, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2004 I thought to check that also, but the password is eight characters long and contains ONLY letters and numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
