Robert,
If you're looking for a quick and dirty solution, you can back up your
older servers by specifying their path on the domain statement of
another Netware server that doesn't have a problem connecting to the
ADSM server.  The response will be a little slower.  We do this to back
up our Netware 3.12 servers from Netware 4.1 just to avoid having to
dink with 3.12.  Just a thought.
