In regard to: [Networker] Older NW clients with v7.6.4.3 server, bingo said...:
Of course older NW clients will work in general with the latest NW
software, even if these combinations are not supported (any more).
Earlier in the thread, I mentioned that I thought oldauth was gone at
NetWorker 8.x -- I seemed to recall reading that somewhere. If it's
true, then clients before 7.3.0 would not work with an 8.x server.
However, I can't find any reference to it now and the closest thing I've
found is a note in Preston's blog about nsrauth being required between
server and NMC, which is a completely different issue.
Can anyone that's running 8.0 server confirm whether oldauth is still
present? If it is still present, it would be good to have it confirmed,
so that my earlier statement doesn't get spread as misinformation.
