Hi Stephen,

I'm afraid I don't have any comment on your problem, but rather a question.

You mention that you normally achieve throughputs of 4-7MB/sec from your
Netware client (4.12g) to your Unix backup server.

May I ask if you had to do anything special to achieve this throughput?

I have just added a simple Novell 6 client, 6 disk Array, Dedicated GigE
BackupLan, to an existing Solaris Networker 613 server, with Win2K Dedicated
storage node with 2 x SDLT Neo2000 library.
Unix & Win clients backing up at 6-10MB/sec. Netware box does 4-5MB/sec with
client originated manual backup, and <20KB/s with scheduled Networker Group
Backup.

Thanks
John Gowing
