Well, not always.  Dantz will often distribute Retrospect Remote with
hardware used for backups (the original poster probably got his copy with
the tape drive he purchased).  A few questions for the original poster,
how many volumes do you have mounted on the machine running the backups? 
I think you said two or three , but I can't remember.  Does this cause
many problems?  Isn't that machine incredibly slow?  At work, we run
Retrospect to backup approxiametly fifty machines over four zones and it
takes six-eight hours to backup all of the work (everything except the
applications and the system folder or an average of 2megs on each machine)
over a localtalk network.  How long does it take your backups to run?  I
would definetely recommend that you use the Remote control panel if you
backup any more than five machines.  Especially if you do this over
localtalk.
