Retrospect Client quits at logout

[jerryc]

Hello

 

I have a G4 OSX 10.2.6 and run the Client 5.1.109. I open the Client software, start it up, set the prefereneces and verify it is being seen on Retrospect server...all is well...

 

Then at the end of the day, I log out and Retrospect Client quits....so no backup occurs.

 

Is there a preference I'm missing? I do this same thing on other stations with no worries.

 

Thanks

If no backup occurs, it is unrelated to the Retrospect Client application, which is a Cocoa application that provides a configuration interface to the actual unix process (pitond) that handles the backups. As long as this processes are running (it should start at system startup and run all the time as a daemon), the backups will occur even when there is no user logged into the Aqua finder.

 

Did you _try_ to backup the machine (as a client) after logging out?
