When I try to backup Novell Directory Services tree on my Netware 5.1 server, it fails. The error log says that the License object cannot be accessed. Does anyone know how to exclude NDS license objects from backup? I also see following error in the error log: 10/26/2002 22:03:04 ANS1301E Server detected system error and the backup job fails. I have added following line in the dsm.opt file for NDS backup: DOMAIN ALL-LOCAL NDS Thanks in advance.
