Thank you again Luis - I have it working now. For anyone else having problems with the Remote Client this is what I wish knew earlier :-D I hope it helps someone! >> The Remote Client lets you run and manage backup jobs on remote pcs. >> You need to install and configure Reflector for remote access ...
