Why? From our first Networker server (a 5.5 version) until now, we have only
updated the clients before the server without problems.

Now, all the "standard" windows clients (including two domain controllers)
work without problems with our 7.1.4 server. Only 2 servers -the 2 microsoft
cluster servers in the domain- has these errors while doing the backup.

What these messages mean?

savepnpc: Could not update job attrs.savepnpc: Jobs error: NULL channel
pointer; create  channel first
savepnpc: Could not get jobid for child job. Continuing...
savepnpc: RPC error: Could not connect to server.

And why the backup seems to be correct?

C:\     level=5,        60 MB 00:01:13    367 files

Thank you very much again!
