It seems like cross platform recovery isn't possible anymore. We have traditionally been running automated restore tests on a linux machine, that recovers files from windows clients, but this stopped working a while ago, probably when we upgraded to 7.1.3.

The error I get is:

recover: Permission denied by server britt.qbranch.se: Cross platform
recovery not supported

According to the knowledge base, this is, fairly enough, not supported. But is there a way to get this to work anyway, even though it is not supported?

It doesn't sound like a fun job to install cygwin on a windows box and port the script to that host, just to test windows clients.
