Not a problem.  You also motivated me to mostly reassemble

I briefly played with ArcServe at $PRIOR_FIRM, and it achieved the usual
stolid mediocrity it enjoys on all the other supported platforms.  Not
nearly as loathsome as Legato Networker.

At your leisure, you should consider experimenting with some of the 
open-source offerings I listed, too, such as Donncha's.
