One trick I use to connectivity between any client and the master or media
server is to perform the following from the server (either windows or
unix works):


bpgetconfig -s <CLIENT>

or

bpgetconfig.exe -s <CLIENT>

where <CLIENT> is either a hostname (with the correct resolution) or IP address.
If it can perform this, then the necessary NetBackup components are in place
to perform a backup  or restore to/from that client.  The output from that 
command
should look something like:

root# bpgetconfig -s 10.210.2.183
Client of prod-backup-bu.mqube.net
Linux, RedHat2.4
5.1.0
NetBackup
5.1
510000
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin
Linux 2.6.9-22.ELsmp




Thanks
