Well it looks like I am stuffed, as the client now wants a Media Server as well as client based, and the compatability for 5.1 does not list it!! only as a client!
 
So doomed from the start !

As it turns out from Simon’s response x86_64 was not correct because he wasn’t talking about Linux but rather Windows.

 

Here we’re not doing any 64 bit Windows yet so unfortunately I can’t answer. 

 

The fact that the 32 bit client for Linux can be made to work on 64 bit Linux suggests there is likely a way to do it on Windows so long as it has some sort of backwards compatibility like Linux does by installing libraries for that purpose.  At least we know hardware isn’t the limitation so if it doesn’t work it would be the OS.

Linux on x64 is referring to the AMD Opteron and Intel EM-64T processors, so x86_64 would be correct.

 

Itanuium needs a completely different version and is 64 bit only.

What do you mean by “x64”.  Linux x86_64?  Itanium?  Something else?

 

If it is Linux x86_64 bit you can install the 2.4 kernel client (32 bit) and add compatibility libraries to make it work properly.

All
Although I have managed to find 5.1 MP5 for x64, I cannot find a client.

I have an x64 on CD, but I am getting alot of problems with the volume manager service refusing to start.

Is there a way to get the software, without the need to contact Symantec?

Thanks, Si
