Re: Macintosh 5.2 client

We have a large installed base of Mac systems here and we are unable to use
the Tivoli OSX client because it still requires that the users be logged in
in order to receive a scheduled backup. This completely defeats the
security features incorporated into the OSX product. I have submitted a
request to Tivoli support pleading with them to address this issue because
we are now faced with the choice of scrapping Tivoli altogether and
replacing it with another product that is not an enterprise solution; or
keep Tivoli and face the prospect of a gaping security hole and the issues
Tivoli has with restoring files with the wrong permissions. My management
is giving me very strong indications that we may have to dump Tivoli at all
our centers if this issue is not addressed. Personally, I really like the
tivoli product and am hoping that these items are addressed.
