Re: [Networker] Error: `localhost' is not a valid index name for the client `localhost'

This usually happens with Linux that use DHCP (sometimes with broken
NICs which flap when you ifconfig up them, Cisco switches and spanning
tree). If you check hostname on your Networker server it will probably
return localhost which means it failed to get DHCP response on time. So,
your options are:
. Move to static IP (BOOTPROTO=static in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0).
. If your NIC is faulty, define spanning-tree portfast on your interface.
. It might also be that your DHCP was not responding when your
Networker server booted.

All of our backups are failing with the message:

Only the index is failing to back up. The rest of the savesets backup fine.
I've cleared the nsr\tmp directory and the jobsdb directories and rebooted the
server but that didn't help.
Anybody have a clue how to fix that?
