Ed,
 
Thanx for the info.  Creating the config file did the trick.  Most likely obvious thinking ( I wouldn't know as I am not that familiar with ssh).  But now another issue has popped up.  This only works with clients on which the root account is allowed to login directly via ssh.  Do you know of any option to add a user with the install_client_files or ssh_to client command ?
 

Best Regards,

Bart WALLEBROEK

We don't specify a port number to use - we use the default port used by your ssh binary. For example if you look under /usr/openv/netbackup/client/Solaris/solaris10 you'll find the ssh_to_client script. On my 6.5 test system line 129 defines SSH as an alias to the binary; try modifying the script so that this SSH alias includes the port number directive.

Of course this is totally unsupported but it should "get you going". Don't forget that when you upgrade these mods will get overwritten...
 
Which is why I suggested earlier this week that the original poster create ~.ssh/config instead.  It's totally supported and will not get overwritten.  Modifying the Symantec scripts should always be a last resort.
