Backup of NetWare Cluster with networker 7.2

Hello All,

A Customer has a problem backing up a Neware 6.5 cluster.
some of the user folder got this error below. but the permissions is correct.

Do anyone have an idé what the source to the problem can be?

Execute only is a file attribute that we used to use a lot long ago. It was kinda a copy protection to prevent users from copying all of our dos applications off of the server. The flag was only suppose to be one way, ie, once you flagged a file execute only you couldn't unflag it. This attribute is probably also preventing the backup software from backing it up (which is in fact making a copy). Someone did write a program (I think is was called xaway, or x-away) that would remove the flag, you could search for that. I know I had it but I don't see it in my normal file archives, but if you don't find it let me know and I'll look harder, might have it on a floppy somewhere...

Hi Lars, nice to see you again

There is an article about those files on the BackupExec site:
http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/236054.htm

Unfortunately, there is no description how to Backup those files. (They exclude them...)
