Steve,
Unfortunately, our TSM servers are still at the 5.2 level (owned by

But they look very appealing.

Hi Steve

I can't help with your query, but are you using the new facilities of
5.5
client?  If so I would be most grateful if you could post your
experiences
here when you have some to share.

Thanks
