Mark,

As you requested The DSM.OPT is as follows :

It's the same on all servers excepting the node name.

   * To specify the communication method used between the client node

   * by removing the '*'. Fill in NODENAME and this will represent a

   *
   * You may also exclude some operating system files.  A recommended
   * list is at the bottom of this file.  These files typically are
   * system level files that, even if backed up, could not be properly
   * restored.  If they are restored, they could corrupt the operation
   * of the system.  If you decide to use the list, simply remove the
   * '*'.

  NODENAME                  GIS


*
*  Recommended exclude list for NetWare
*  -------------------------------------------------------
*
*  NetWare 3.x specific - use the INCR BINDERY or SEL BINDERY
*  command to backup the bindery; exclude the real bindery
*  files:
*  -------------------------------------------------------
* EXCLUDE          sys:\system\net$obj.sys

*  excluded; container objects are not affected. This example
*  shows how to include only objects in container
*  .OU=Development.O=ADSM
*  ---------------------------------------------------------
* EXCLUDE          directory:/.O=ADSM/.../*
* INCLUDE          directory:/.O=ADSM/.OU=Development.O=ADSM/.../*
  INCLUDE          directory:/.O=IAA/.../*
*
*  NetWare general excludes
*  ---------------------------------------------------------
 EXCLUDE          sys:\system\secaudit.log
 EXCLUDE          sys:\system\events.log
 EXCLUDE          sys:\system\system.log

*  NetWare Screen option
*  ---------------------------------------------------------------
*  The following option instructs the NetWare client to destroy
*  the ADSM screen when quitting the dsmc program.
*
 NWWAIT NO

*  NetWare user ID and password option
*  --------------------------------------------------------------
*  The following option specifies a user ID and password to connect
*  to a local or remote NetWare resource (server or NDS tree). The
*  user ID must have NetWare supervisory equivalence. Use this
*  option for each resource which will be managed by ADSM.
*
*  If this option is not specified in the client options file, ADSM
*  will check for a user ID and password in an encrypted file (if
*  NWPWFILE is set to YES).  If a correct user ID and password
*  is not found in a file (or NWPWFILE is set to NO), ADSM will prompt
*  for a user ID and password when a backup or archive operation
*  is initiated.
*
* NWUSER server_1_name\user:password
* NWUSER server_2_name\user:password
* NWUSER nds_tree_name\user:password
* NWUSER NS_IAA_GIS\admin:reshet

*  NetWare user ID and password file
*  --------------------------------------------------------------
*  The following option specifies that the user ID and password used
*  to connect to a NetWare resource (server or NDS tree) will be stored
*  in an encrypted file in the installation directory after the intiial
*  prompt. An encrypted file will be created for each resource with the
*  extension .PWD
*
 PASSWORDACCESS GENERATE
 NWPWFILE YES

*  Silencing screen output
*  -----------------------------------------------------------------
*  Use the QUIET option to keep messages from being displayed on the
*  NetWare console and the schedule log file.  This option will enhance
*  the performance during scheduled backups.
*
*  Note that by using this option, schedule event windows, schedule
*  statistics and errors during schedule processing will still be
*  written to the schedule log file.
*
*  If this option is not specified, the default VERBOSE will be taken.
*
* QUIET
