"Sorry, client networking is unavailable"

Recommended Posts

Hi Folks,

 

I'm running Retrospect Professional v6 on a Win95b machine.

 

However, i'm unable to 'see' clients in the Configure > Clients window.

 

Clients include 95, 98, XP Pro, and MacOS X.

 

The server is on a small UTP ethernet LAN with one NetGear switch.

 

A strange error message about networking not being installed correctly was

given on the server.

 

The wording of the error is as follows:

 

"Sorry, client networking is unavailable. Please check your computers TCP/IP

settings in the network control panel."

 

This appears when clicking 'Add...' in the Configure > Clients area.

 

I dismissed it, because I was able to ping all of the clients that I wanted to back up. I found a reference to this type of issue in the manual, but it blamed networking hardware.

 

Can anyone offer some tips to resolve this issue? Is it simply a imitation

of running 6 Pro under 95b?
