I realize this to be the case. But as TSM administrator, I was/am
obligated to ask the question just so I have the information. Have to
cover all the bases as it were. In truth, I hope this will force them
into going to XP pro as the desktop or spend the money and migrate the
application to the Novell network servers.

Again, I think you for confirming what I thought to be the truth.

In answer to your question, no.

I'm sure I'm stating the obvious, but Windows 9x is certainly not the
platform for highly sensitive data. My advice would be to move the data
to
an NT-based (or other secure) operating system.

TSM and Windows 98






I have 3 clients that are currently using Windows 98se and have
standalone applications that cannot  run on the Novell network.
They need to be backed up automatically on a daily basis, but because
the information on them is highly sensitive (we are a hospital) the
desktop can not be left signed on 24X7. Even a password protected screen
saver is not really acceptable as far as the data security people are
concerned.

If there a way to run the Windows 9X client and still have the PC not
signed on? As a "service"?

Thanks in advance

Bill
