TSM 5.3.2.0 client
Windows2003

The TSM 5.1 client is already installed and this in an upgrade. On some servers 
(most notibly Domino servers) the install fails at
the very end with an insufficient access permissions on the PLUGINS 
subdirectory. This is at the point where the previous client is
removed, but the 5.3.2.0 client does not complete. After the install ends if 
you look at the permissions on the directory it is set
to Read-Only...as well as the BACLIENT directory. You cannot change this 
either. It actually takes a reboot of the server for the
install to complete. We are logged in as the administrator account, and the TSM 
services are stopped. There is not a backup running
or a web client accessing the system.

I've searched on ADSM-L and IBM with no hits. Any ideas? This is probably a 
Windows issue, but all the client sees is that it is
TSM. Perception issue.
