check dsmsched.log. maybe your server is not supporting client pulling
which is the default when you install nt client. if this is the case put
"schedmode prompted" in your dsm.opt file.


anybody out there can tell me where do i get "dsmcsvci"? i didn't seem to
get it after a standard installation off v3 cd. i had to use dsmutil
command line which worked too. but... btw this is for nt.


thanks.
