Even if it were still supported, I wouldn't use the Connect Agent for Notes 4.x if I were threatened with an eternity of _The Osbournes_ reruns. That app wa awful awful awful. It wasn't really Tivoli's fault. The APIs supplied to backup app vendors by Lotus were so badly written that Tivoli got rid of it as soon as it could. My favorite bug was the one where the agent would start backing up the Notes databases in alphabetical order, and would regularly fail after it had finished with one letter, but before it would start the next letter (and it was never the same letter two sessions running). You'd be *way* better off using an open file manager like St. Bernard's Open File Manager, and backing up the Notes stuff that way. -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Certified TSM consultant Certified AIX system engineer MCSE
