| | Need help installing connector Getting the following error on 2 computers. Tried the suggestion below but connector is still not installing. The version of the Connector software does not match the version of Windows Home Server. Make sure you are installing the correct version of the Connector software. On your home computer, delete the %ProgramFiles%\Windows Home Server folder if it exists. Then install the Connector software from the Software shared folder on your home server, rather than from the CD. (Perhaps you have an old CD.) Connect to \\YourServerName\Software\ Home Server Connector Software, and then run Setup.exe. |

| | Re: Need help installing connector It would be better to ask this in http://forums.microsoft.com/WindowsH...aspx?SiteID=50 you probably should say what OS the computers are running. I don't remember having this problem when I upgraded from the Beta to WHS RTM. -- http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview "racnic" <racnic@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:C69133EC-0232-44AC-AF54-2116ECDF38BA@xxxxxx Quote: > Getting the following error on 2 computers.

It appears that the machine you are using is running either Vista or XP. This is Windows Home Server http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Home_Server |

| | Re: Need help installing connector The Connector software is installed on a Vista or XP computer to connect to the Home Server computer so you can perform backups to it. The Home Server has some standard folders shared, and the Connector software is available to be installed on the clients from there. -- http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview "philo" <philo@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:OtA48$rZIHA.1132@xxxxxx Quote: > > "racnic" <racnic@xxxxxx> wrote in message > news:142D1525-07DC-4E8D-B990-B49EAFD0F012@xxxxxx Quote: >> Hi Philo, >> Please clarify what you mean?
