For what it's worth we backup Unix, Windows 3.1, 95, and several Macs using
a level 1.2 Sun Solaris Server.  We have occasional failures on scheduler
based backups but never anything systematic.  We are using 2.1.0.5,6 clients
and Macs with 7.5.1-7.5.5, OT 1.1.1,OT1.1.2, MacTCP (a bit of everything)
I know that doesn't solve your problem, but as far as we have seen there
does not seem to be any deadly combinations that don't work. We use the
scheduler instead of the direct backup, maybe it would work better for you.
