Confused about Passwords

Hi, I've read and re-read the Password Help a number of times and still don't get it. It is not helped by the fact that the Help doesn't seem to gel exactly with what the Form fields are: 1) what does "All copies of AIS with the same seed mean"..is the seed provided by AIS? If that's the c...

Is Beta 2.1. OK for general use?

Hi Barry, I've just ordered a second copy of your program and was about to download when I noticed 2.1. Is that OK for general use? I'm aware of the general disclaimers re Beta Software (I run a software co), however is this version really "out there" to that extent...from what I've read, ...

Thanks Barry, That worked a treat and is obvious (now I know!), however it is a bit counter-intuitive. Perhaps a comment in the Help File in that Section to the effect: " Run On , select which days of the week the job should run on (NOTE: even if you do not intend to use scheduling e.g. to Auto...

Running mutiple jobs

Hi, I'd like to run multiple jobs one after the other on demand i.e. not scheduled to run at a certain time. I tried setting them up using "Autorun AIS backup" (unchecking all date boxes) and created a Desktop icon. When I click the icon, there's a momentary message that suggests AIS is st...

Clarification on Sessions

Hi, I'd just like to clarify my understanding of Sessions. For example... Assume I execute a given Job (A) for what becomes Session 10 i.e I started with full back up and this is my 9th incremental backup; then after the Job has finished, I delete Sessions 1 to 9.

Barry, When you say "compressed as ZIP files", does that mean AIL files may be opened by the likes of WinZip? I tried that and couldn't open them. I have a real aversion to proprietary backup formats. Is AIL a means of splitting large files or something, otherwise what's the benefit? In my...

What is an AIL file?

This is my first post; I have recently purchased AIS having tried it for a week or so... I notice that in a backup I did today, there were a number of AIL files. I've never seen these before, what are they? Total volume of the backup is 1.5Gb, of which 350Mb is made up of six Ail Files, the balance ...
