[Bacula-users] VSS on Vista/Win2008 x64

Hello folk,

    We're primarily a 95% linux desktop and server environment, with some Macs, but we have a couple of pain in the necks we need to back up and I'm concerned about VSS. One is a Windows Server 2008 64-bit, and another is Vista 64-bit. Some things back up fine, but, I get the following VSS error on both jobs:

Warning: VSS was not initialized properly. VSS support is disabled. ERR=An attempt was made to reference a token that does not exist.

    This using version 2.4.4 across the entire network, using Ubuntu Jaunty amd64 server for director - which is also 2.4.4. I've found bits and pieces out there about "Oh blah blah x64 VSS support doesn't work with 32-bit whine whine" - but, no resolutions - was this fixed already in later versions? Sorry if this is redundant.

    It doesn't seem to matter if I put Enable VSS = yes, or no - in this FileSet after the "Name =" field.

    The following is my fileset for the Win2k8 x64 server, and version browser shows it works fine by all appearances:

Name = "solarset"
