Tom,
     I just started testing ADSM on a NetWare5 server.  I am using the
3.106 client. I was making a lot of changes a few weeks ago, so my memory
is not totally fresh.  I know one thing I had to do was remove the
Directory as a domain in the dsm.opt file.  I also had to unload dsmcad and
then reload dsmc first.  You may want to try removing the directory from
your domain.  I specify each volume individually.  We have replicas of NDS
so we don't need to back it up anyway.
     Hope that helps.

Thanks,
Doug

some more info -

q filespace returns:

  Node Name: ANSOS
Please enter password for node "ANSOS": *****

No file spaces for node 'ANSOS' were found on the server

my understanding is that this is the correct response, as this node
has yet to be backed.
