Netbackup 7.5.0.5
Both boxes are RedHat Linux Release 6
Box "A" is the master and has always been the master/media server.
Box "B" has always been a standard client backing up across the network.

Licensing purchased and Box "B" was cleanly installed as a media server.

The master server can't see Box "B" as a media server.
bp.conf file checked and tweaked on both boxes.
Netbackup has been stopped and restarted several times.

Tried to manually add it to the master and I get this message:
globalDB hostname has not been set (Status 4)

4 of us have tried to get this working.....all have failed so far.

Tips, pointers, tricks, advice......all would be appreciated.
