aos Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 I saw this version (Retrospect Professional 7.5) was compatible with Windows 2000 Small Business Server , so I bought it for a machine that is running Windows 2000 Server. However, when I went to install it the software would not accept the key. Now I know this was a problem for an older version of retrospect that came with their WDHD and saw that it wouldn't take the key because it was not compatible with Windows 2000 Server. Is the case the same with the professional version even though it says its compatible with Windows 2000 SBS? To try to get around this I tried installing it on a Windows 2000 Professional machine on the network, which worked fine. So I tried doing a test backup of a shared folder of particular importance on the server across the network from windows 2000 professional machine. It worked the first time fine. But, when i go to do it a second time, it says "Can't Access volume {share name} on {server name}, error -1017 insufficient permissions." I have to restart the 2000 pro machine and then it will allow me to do it one but then repeats the same problem. I apologize for the novel but i have been trying to figure this out for awhile on my own now and was hoping for some help. Any would be greatly appreciated.

Mayoff Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 The Small Business Server License code will not install on Windows 2000 Server. It will only install on XP, Vista, 2000 Pro and 2000 Small Business Server. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aos Posted February 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 Looks like that fixed it for the most part. The autologin button is always greyed out and i seem to have to re enter the password whenever whenever you close out of the program but ill just have them leave it open. Appreciate the help! =) -Ryun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
