I'm confused....??

Is Netwarker Client for Netware 4.21 support Netware 6.5? I've got
problems backing up NW 6.5 server. (it's never end the save set backup
process when backing up incremental set, but works fine on full).

I've contact my local rep. and he told me that client 4.21 is not
supporting Netware 6.5.

I'll appreciate any road map info on the client side.

Thanks,

Chezy Gal
