But 7.3.3 is EOSL at the end of this year, and 7.4 is EOSL the end of September 2010... So, we all have to move to something if we want to stay supported -- no matter whether it works or not.

I just tried to install the 7.6 32-bit linux (linux86) client (lgtoclnt and lgtoman) and nsrexecd wouldn't start up because of problems with some ssl library -- so early in the process it didn't even open and log in the daemon.raw file.

So, then I went back to 7.4.5.2 client and tried to install the 7.6 nmc. That one failed trying to convert language files. /sigh

Back to running the 7.4.5.2 nmc.  /sigh

I swear the land our data center is built on must be cursed.

I just finished testing NMC 7.6 with NW 7.4.5.2 on a test Windows box, it does 
look like a worthwhile NMC upgrade. Thanks for the pointer Preston.

Hi Tim,

In regard to: [Networker] NetWorker 7.6 Binaries/Installers now available...:

If you're wanting to see the enhancements to monitoring while
downloading the packages and documentation for testing, you can find a
brief overview here: http://bit.ly/8G894R
I agree with you blog assessment -- this is a great reason to upgrade to
NMC 3.6, even if you wait on the actual NetWorker upgrade.

Have you, by chance, tested NMC from 7.6 with Networker 7.5.x and 7.4.x?
Any oddities that you noticed?
I don't actually recall testing with 7.4.x, but I don't see why it wouldn't 
work. Downwards compatibility is always a lot easier.

I did a number of tests though with 7.5.1 and its various patch releases though 
and never noticed any issues.

Cheers,

Preston.
