Retrospect 5 clients

[wilsson]

Retrospect desktop is unable to see the client on my network which is acting as my internet gateway.

 

Moving the "ethernet port" to the top of the "Active Network Ports" list, as has been suggested,

 

will allow it to work, but it changes my default route and prevents my machines from connecting

 

to the internet.

 

 

 

In the interim, I'm able to perform this switch to do the backups, but it's rather painful.

 

 

 

Any suggestions?

As of 4/8/02, this continues to be a problem.

I think adding the client by address will work, since the problem is that the client acting as a gateway and broadcasting on the default interface does not reach the server. (However, this may require Workgroup or Server rather than Desktop.)

John,

 

 

 

I'm really not thrilled to pay a $100 premium (Workgroup upgrade differential) for a shortsighted

 

design issue on Dantz' part. I've got two machines; this should be a no brainer for the Desktop

 

solution.

 

 

 

Before upgrading my machines to OS X, this configuration, using Retrospect 4.3, worked perfectly

 

fine.

 

 

 

I'm sure Dantz can find a reasonable solution to this problem.

 

 

 

Thanks for the suggestion, though.
