Hi, I'm getting an error message relating to the Remote agent. - This is loaded on 3 other servers, the backup is coming up failed but looks like it worked and the error message is as follows:

Remote Agent for Windows NT/2000 not present - performing standard backup
WARNING: Media servers cannot completely protect remote
Windows 2000 servers or workstations unless the Backup
Exec Remote Agent for Windows NT/2000 is installed
and running on each remote Windows 2000 server or
workstation to be protected. Data loss can occur if the
Remote Agent for Windows NT/2000 is not running
while backing up remote Windows 2000 computers.

Does anybody have any ideas - I've restarted all the services on all the servers relationg to this but It doesn't want to work - also I can't seem to reinstall the remote agent??
 
You can re-install the Remote Agent with this batchfile:

1. Copy the RANT32 folder from the Backup Exec Mediaserver (or from the Backup Exec CD) to the remote server: X:\WINNT\INSTALL\RANT32.

2. On the server, open the RANT32 folder and run SETUPAA.CMD to re-install the Remote Agent for Windows Servers

Regards
TDM
