I asked for advice on what might be the best version of Networker to
run on DU4.0B.

who all advised me (with some concern! :-) that we needed to upgrade
to DU4.0D (or later) and Networker 5.2 (or later) or our backups might
not work after Dec 31st 1999 ....
I think that 4.0F is the first version of Tru64/DU to come with
Networker 5.2 **SingleServer** included.
*** Anyone with a software maintenance contract should act NOW to get the
*** necessary upgrades or pay $$$$ to upgrade later.
Claudia Sawisch from Compaq advises:
"Compaq only has until June 14, 1999, to sell the V5.2 of NetWorker to
you."
"After June 14, 1999, you will have to go to Legato. Legato will not
sell Version 5.2 of NetWorker to you. They only have Version 5.5 of
NetWorker available to sell to you."
Claudia will be available to help answer questions until the end of
July.
