Question
-
I find that when i click on stuff within the home server it is slow to react. Is that normal.
Also, i look in my list of backups and they are old, ie last is June. I have told it to back up daily but it does not show any indication of that.
It seems to freeze a lot, or at least delay. At the moment it is telling me that it is not responding.

I do not receive any error messages with regards to time to log on to home server. Just tried now and it took about 15 seconds so i guess that is ok.
the big issue is that the backups note that June is the last backup, while there are no 'error' messages within the program and i believe it is set to backup each day. I note that daily backups are to be kept for four days and weekly for 4 weeks and monthly for 6 months.
i may have just figured it out. The date within the program was set for June 2009. That is probably why i have had a problem.
I will watch it and see how it is doing for a couple of days. I guess the date control is seperate from the date on my computer, probably because the program (whs) is accessing a web-based located program?
thanks
