Installing the Retrospect Client
Mac OS X
1) Download the client installation software here (only accessible from on-campus):
Computer within Meliora Hall: Mac OSX Retrospect client 6.3.029 Computer outside Meliora Hall: Mac OSX Retrospect client 11
2) Double-click the disk image to expand it. Then, run the "Install OSX Client" installer.
3) When the install ends, you should be shown the 'Retrospect Client' application. Click the 'On' button to turn on backups. When asked for a password, enter something simple (like 'chris').
4) Once you've finished the install, let me know what the password is and I'll take care of things on my end (the password gets changed when I add the computer to the backup server).
5) That's it!
Windows
1) Download the client installation software (only accessible from on-campus):
Computer within Meliora Hall: Windows Retrospect client 7.7 Computer outside Meliora Hall: Windows Retrospect client 9.0
2) Double-click the download and run the installer.
3) During the installation process, you'll be asked to enter a password. Just enter something simple. Once you've finished the install, let me know what the password is and I'll take care of things on my end (the password gets changed when I add the computer to the backup server). That's it!
