Setting Up Network-Based Backup with the Arcada Agent

To use the Arcada agent, you must have the following components:

• Arcada Backup Exec Agent (included with Windows 95). The agent includes the following files: BKUPAGNT.EXE, BKUPNET.DLL, and BKUPPROP.DLL.
• Arcada Backup Exec for NetWare, Enterprise Edition or Single Server Edition, version 5.01. To obtain this software, please contact Arcada directly at (800) 327-2232.

To back up a computer running Windows 95 with the Arcada agent, you must first install and enable the Arcada agent. If you didn't already do this during Setup, you can install and enable the Arcada agent by using the Network option in Control Panel. After you install the backup agent, the computer will run the agent automatically in the background when you start Windows 95.

To install and enable the Arcada Backup Exec Agent

1. In the Network option in Control Panel, click Add.
2. In the Select Network Component Type dialog box, double-click Service.
3. In the Select Network Service dialog box, click Arcada Software in the Manufacturers list, click Backup Exec Agent in the Network Services list, and then click OK.

To run Arcada network-based backup on a computer running Windows 95, run Arcada Backup Exec Agent (NetWare Enterprise Edition or Single Server Edition). See the product documentation for more information and instructions.
