No. We were (are) running it on OSX.

What I'm not sure (and any of the higher-ups here could chime in?) would be that if you made a backup of your database file, you should (I think?) be able to analyze that file with any of the MMRX clients.


IIRC, you can't run "analyze" on the *live* database -- you have to do it from a non-running or backup copy. Maybe that's it?

The Meeting Maker database (and any copy / backup of it) is OS specific.
You will not be able to use a Windows version of MMRx to read a Linux
database.

No, you can't do that. I tried to use the Solaris command line analyse
tool on an OSX database. No joy.
