Subject: [Networker] problems while configuring NDMP bakups

hi,
i was configring my LTO 4 tape library with 4 tape drives for networker 7.2
on windows. I was in touch with the EMC support and my requiremnt was tht i
wanted to configure 2 tape drives out of 4 for normal backps and the other 2
tpe drives for NDMP backups, which will be used for my NETAPP filer..
So i cold successfully do the first part , i.e. 2 tape drives for normal
backup. Bt i could not configure successfully for the tape drives for NDMP
backups. It said it could not establish connection with the filer. When i
checked the remote user settings it was correct. So finally the EMC support
ppl told my configurations were correct. bt i had to do some settings in the
network part.
They told me to do these two things :
1) First of all, edit the host file of the backup server and put the
entries, i.i ip address, long name and shortname of the filer and also edit
the host file of the filer which is running on unix os and put the entries
of backup server also.

2) The second point ( which i did not understand)  what they told was i had
to open the rpc port in the filer and backup server. Because wen they
applied the rpcinfo command to the filer it could not connect.
        in this secon point what i did not understand is that , actually
what shold we do? what is this rpc connection and where should we open this
? 
what is it actally they meant ? Open rpc port or open rpc connection and
where should we do this ?


yoour suggestions would be valuable ..

rgds,
kv
