This might be caused because of the servers file. As far I have experienced on 
linux a servers file is not created under /nsr/res folder. You will have to 
manually create a file by the name "servers" no extensions under /nsr/res on 
that client machine. Open servers file with a text editor eg. vi and put in the 
name of the NetWorker server. Once done restart he nsrexecd service on the 
client machine. That should get it going.

Subject: [Networker] linux client trying to use itself as server

Hi everybody,

we have a problem with Postgres on linux doing backup with savepnpc.
OS is Redhat 5.7, networker version is 7.6.2.7.

Node is running a PostgresDB, backup goes with savepnpc. Pstclientsave sends 
WAL-Logs from client to server. Sometimes (not very often) the following 
messages appears in savepnpc.log:

3817:save: Using "clientname" as server
39076:save: RPC warning: RPC cannot make a procedure call: Create failed: 
Program not registered

After that it continues with
3817:save: Using "networker server" as server and backup goes on.

Savesets on the server are complete, so it seems the saveset is sent again with 
the right servername and saved on tape as it should be. However, script sends 
back a returncode "1" and our Postgres-admin asks why backup has gone wrong.

Any ideas how to avoid this?

Regards, Christian
