Right. Just this week I have installed my first Netware 4.11 server (hurray
:-)) with Arcserve 6.0 (with a patch which I downloaded from the Internet).
I saw the two resources that you are talking about.

Sounds logical to me, but most of the costumers I have to deal with are
rather same companies (5 to 10 users). Such small companies don't want to
invest in multiple servers. One "good" server is expensive enough for them.
I think I will make some testcases of restoring a NDS tree from tape to a new
machine... Just in case, so I know what I can find on my way...
Thanks for the information...
