This email is to be read subject to the disclaimer below.

We have managed to do this with a few clients, however its buggy and 
rarely works as it should. The main problem is that when you specify the 
management port from the client end, it then goes and chooses another 
seemingly random port to use instead of the correct one. It gives me 
massive headaches as the firewall guys are reluctant to open a port that 
is not approved by the software vendor.

Apprently this is going to be fixed in Legato 7.3

Best of luck,
Matt

Subject
[Networker] Backing up through a Firewall






I was wondering if anybody is able to backup a server located in the
other side of a firewall from the NetWorker server?

I have tried to follow the Admin guide, but somehow it seems that the
server needs to make contact with the NetWorker server first, then once
the client has been created, you can modify it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am using NetWorker 7.2 on an AIX 5.1 server.

Thanks,

Mark A. Sackson
