Is it true that if FQDN is used for client name then it queries DNSfirst( short name queries the host file first), i thought servers andhost file

for client and the server ? was that not true ?

Yes, all the aliases appear in the client entry. To answer TimMooney's question, I actually tried putting in an /etc/hosts fileentry for all the aliases on both client and NetWorker server asfollows ...

That didn't help. The SA who's in charge of the client assured me thatiptables is off and I can "rpcinfo -p wwww.ocis.temple.edu" and seethe nsrexecd port.

I just finished a webex session with an EMC tech and they are stilllooking into it. I am going to call over to our network manager to seeif they have any insight into this issue.
