Okay, I gave up on Ghost (some of you may have read my rant) and I bought TrueImage Workstation.
I have successfully made backups of all the computers on my office network with TrueImage and tested the images. Seems to work fine where Ghost failed miserably. I've given up on the NAS part of my external drive and am using it via USB 2.0. This because I can format NTFS and because the backup location must be local to use Acronis' automated server maintenance.
The backups I made were done using TrueImage Workstation locally on each machine. I can't get the server to work.
More specifically, when I go into the management console on the server to setup a backup for a remote machine running Agent, everything seems to go OK until I try to tell it the backup location. I should see in the file tree "Acronis Backup Servers">"My Computer">"Personal backup location". I see backup servers and my computer but there is no personal backup location listed in the tree and it won't let me choose the server. It is as if it is not setup. Can't figure out what would cause this.
The only thing I'm fairly sure of is that it is not firewall because I tried it with everything on dmz so I think I've fairly ruled that out.
Anyone use this and can help?
