Linda Weaver, We have a variety of computers set up with Intego's FileGuard Remote v4.0. We've had some problems with protected drives and MacOS 8.6 and later, even with earlier versions of FGR. Also, sometimes the computers are finicky talking to each other via FGR, but again, we've had this with the earlier versions. (Perhaps it's us, and not the program?) Other than that, FGR4.0 works for tracking usage with the following: PowerMac G4/733, MacOS 9.2.1, FACScan PowerMac G3/400 B&W, MacOS 8.6, FACSCalibur and analysis PowerMac G3/300 B&W, MacOS 8.5.1, FACS Vantage PowerMac G3/300, MacOS 8.5.1, FACScan PowerMac 7500/100, MacOS 8.5.1, analysis We use Retrospect Remote v4.1 on all except the G4 due to a firewall issue. Before updating, we were using FGR3.2.1. Good luck, Eric >Greetings, all! > >I've been using Fileguard Remote v. 3.2.3 to keep track of user accounts >over a multi-client LAN.
