Hi Michael
It is likely that you miss following option in your opt-file:
passworddir  /full path to directory in which you want your file with the
encrypted password to be stored.
TSM Client needs access to this file as well.

I need some help setting up a Linux client.  Specifically, I need a sample
DSM.opt, and DSM.sys file.  The group responsible for this node, is trying
to run the backup via a cron job, but when the backup starts, it asks for a
password.  When the node was orginally setup, here is what was put into
each file, adn as you can see, it is missing alot of information:

DSM.sys:
************************************************************************
* Tivoli Storage Manager                                               *
*                                                                      *
* Sample Client System Options file for UNIX (dsm.sys.smp)             *
************************************************************************

*  This file contains the minimum options required to get started
*  using TSM.  Copy dsm.sys.smp to dsm.sys.  In the dsm.sys file,
*  enter the appropriate values for each option listed below and
*  remove the leading asterisk (*) for each one.

*  If your client node communicates with multiple TSM servers, be
*  sure to add a stanza, beginning with the SERVERNAME option, for
*  each additional server.

************************************************************************

SErvername  server_a
   COMMmethod         TCPip
   TCPPort            1500
   TCPServeraddress   tsm390

DM.opt:
************************************************************************
* Tivoli Storage Manager                                               *
*                                                                      *
* Sample Client User Options file for UNIX (dsm.opt.smp)               *
************************************************************************

*  This file contains an option you can use to specify the TSM
*  server to contact if more than one is defined in your client
*  system options file (dsm.sys).  Copy dsm.opt.smp to dsm.opt.
*  If you enter a server name for the option below, remove the
*  leading asterisk (*).

************************************************************************

* SErvername       A server name defined in the dsm.sys file


Currently, most of my exposure to setting up clients has been on the NT/W2K
side, and here is what I had the NT group use there:

Anybody have some samples?

Authentication is turned on, due to a requirement, so I can't turn if off.

Thanks for any help that can be provided!
