Hello,

Can someone answer this? I created a file ran a backup on this file and of coarse it backed it up full. Now I run another backup and it does not backup anything....Until this point all is normal. Now I open the file and "X" out of it...I do not do a save. Basically just read the file. I run the backup and it takes the whole file again....WHY???? No changes were made to the file.....Just opened. Is Netware client/Networker working as designed? Or is there a problem

Any help/understanding would be greatly appreciated



 
Hi,

can ist be that the file "was" modified on that by a virus scanner ?

Its not a normal behavior !

Which client do you use ? The latest 7.2.1 ?

I'm using 7.2 client and the fact of antivirus I know about
 

Can you tell us which Operating System are you using?

If you use Windows, opening a file will modify the "last date read" (NTFS attribute), and can explain the fact that Networker client belives that the file was modified?
