In regard to: [Networker] Linux Client setup, Fazil Saiyed said (at 8:52am...:

This is the first time i will be using Windows server 7.3.3 to backup
Linux, i have heard conflicting info on what i need, can some one give me
more insight as to what i need to backup 5 linux -RedHat client servers to
windows based Networker server.

You need:

- at least five free client connection licenses, or you need to purchase
  at least five more.

- the Linux Client Pack.


You don't say what version of Red Hat Linux you're running, so I can't
comment on any special install procedures.

I would appreciate if  you could also
elaborate on any install issues, special parameters and or config for me
to get going on it. ( What files would i need to configure,i.e hosts allow
? RMP install procedures )

If /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny is being used, you will need to
make sure that the portmap entry allows connections from your server.

If iptables is enabled, you will need to make sure that the firewall isn't
blocking connections from your server.

If SELinux is in place, you're on your own.  ;-)  I doubt it will cause
you any problems, but it probably depends on what version of Red Hat
you're running.
