About installing the Remote Agent for NetWare Systems

When you install the Remote Agent on the NetWare server, you must do the following:

  • Create a directory named BKUPEXEC in the SYS: volume. You can then copy the latest tested versions of the NLMs needed by Backup Exec to process NetWare-specific requests to a Bkupexec/Nlms directory.

  • Create the Bestart.ncf and the Bestop.ncf files and place them in the SYS:SYSTEM directory. These files contain commands to load the appropriate NLMs that allow the NetWare server to be backed up.

Note:

If you have previously installed the Remote Agent on NetWare servers, run Bestop from each NetWare console before you install the Remote Agent on those servers again.

When Backup Exec is installed, the TCP/IP protocol is selected for use by default. However, you can change the default settings through Tools>Options>Network and Security dialog box.
