As I said earlier (see below), the ONLY Win9X client that is supported by
5.1 is Windows Me.

The web site is in error and will be fixed accordingly.

To summarize:

Version 4.1: Supports Windows 95, 98, and Me. Goes out of service for most
platforms at the end of June; goes out of service for OS/390 platforms at
the end of September. See
http://www.tivoli.com/support/storage_mgr/tivolieoc.html for details.

Version 4.2: Supports Windows 98 and Me. Windows 95 is NOT supported.

Version 5.1: Supports Windows Me. Windows 95, 98 are NOT supported.

Regards,

Andy

the way I know it, 5.1 does support Win9x client side. the web site is
correct. haven't tried to mix it up with a 4.2 server, but haven't heard
of
problems there yet. what exactly is the generic error you get?
have you tried doing a q actlog to see what the server says?

updated it....
