Hi all, We have purchased a 2.6 gig Plasmon optical drive for imaging storage. It's attached to a workstation on our Novell 4.1 network. I would like to use this drive as a backup device, but am having a hard time finding software to do so. Does Fastback still exist? I remember this being able to back up to *anything*. Ideally, I would like this product to also back up the Novell server. I've tried Plasmon with no luck so far (a tech is *supposed* to be faxing me something, but I haven't gotten it yet). It almost seems as though Seagate has something that will do this and even the Novell server (NDS & all), but again, I'm being bounced from department to department. Any suggestions, any pointers at all would be greatly appreciated, as I'm about to order more backup tapes!!!! There's got to be a better way! :) Thanks in advance, Diane
