Both your assumptions are correct... unfortunately, it seems to be hard task collecting and keeping up-to-date a compatibility list. The problem starts with the fact that many users don't report their configuration. For those of us that do, a page in the wiki might be a good starting point. The luxury version would be a database accessible through a web front end, and when starting Bacula the first time you get asked if you want your systems data uploaded automatically to the database... now we only need someone to implement this :-) > > Regards, > Ivan Arno -- IT-Service Lehmann [EMAIL PROTECTED] Arno Lehmann http://www.its-lehmann.de ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
