The issue was that I was using:

 "managedservices schedule webclient" in the dsm.sys
AND
 dsmsched in the startup script!!!

Once I removed the dsmsched from the startup script and bounced the client,
everything worked...

I've got Windows clients running through a firewall at 5.2.0.2 and 5.2.2.5,
no issues.
Polling mode works fine, and the only port you need open for the scheduler
to work is 1500.

However, I'm not using managed services (dsmcad), just the regular old
scheduler.
I'm not sure what the effect is of using dsmcad.

It's interesting though, that in your dsmerror.log, the client RECOGNIZED
that you were trying to get a connection from the server; that means
something got THROUGH the firewall to your client, yes?  Being able to back
up via the GUI also means you're getting through the firewall.

What I would try next is to simplify the interaction by dropping "managed
services", and just using the standard scheduler, and see if you get
different results.

I am having an issue trying to backup a client through a firewall.
I can run a manual backup from the client but cannot get the scheduled
backup to work.
I changed to Polling mode and opened firewall ports 1500 and 1581 between
server and client.

Server:  TSM 5.2.2.4 on AIX 5.1
Client: TSM 5.2.2.0 on Solaris 5.8

<<dsm.sys on client:>>

<<dsmerror.log>>
Error -50 accepting inbound connection

Has anyone been in this situation???
