Resolved - in the server network interface I put the backup-lan hostname
of the client rather than the backup-lan hostname of the networker
server.

Subject: [Networker] Unable to use backup cleints using Server Network
Interface

Hi, I am attempting to configure my clients to use a backup lan (windows
clients and windows networker 7.2.1 server). I can ping the backup lan
IP address allocated to the networker server and the clients in both
directions. I can telnet to the port 7938 using the backup lan ip
addresses.

 

I have configured the host file on the networker server to contain the
backup lan IP addresses and the backup hostname (backup-client1 rather
than client1). I have configured the host file on the clients to contain
the backup lan IP addresses and the backup hostname (backup-client1
rather than client1). I have also configured the hosts files to contain
the backup lan IP address and hostname for the networker server.

 

I have edited the client (original hostname) and entered the alias of
the backup hostname. I have edited the field Server Network Interface
and put in the backup-lan hostname. I have made the servers file on each
client and server empty and restarted the services.

 

I receive the following error message on test backups: RPC error:
Program not registered. Cannot access nsr server 'clientname'

 

Any suggestion please!

 

Regards, mark
