Vince,

It could be caused by firewall rules not opening RPC nor enough ports
or that servers file (nsr/res sub-dir on the client) not filled with 
FQDN, short name or any other alias the backup server may have.

As FW rule tips, I am using such a ones working fine :

        From (backup Server and SN) to clients
        
        PortMap : Udp 111
        PortMap : Tcp 111
        Networker-10001-12500(*)   : Tcp
        Networker-7537-7660(*)     : Tcp
        Networler-7937-8100-tcp : Tcp
        Networker-8910          : Tcp
        Networker-8911          : Tcp
        Networker-udp-7938      : Udp
        Snmp 
        Snmp-Trap

       From Clients to (Backup server and SN)

        Syslog 
        Snmp
        Snmp-Trap
        Networker-10001-12500(*)   : Tcp
        Networker-7537-7660(*)     : Tcp
        Networler-7937-8100-tcp : Tcp
        Networker-8910          : Tcp
        Networker-8911          : Tcp
        Networker-udp-7938      : Udp

(*) it depends how you filled the nsrla.res file to restrict port usage.
Syslog port is opened for centralization of console msg.
Snmp are optional.

Hope that helps,

Thierry

Subject: [Networker] 'authtype nsrexec' error
Importance: High


Server: NetWorker 6.1.2. Build 340 under Solaris 2.6
Client:  NetWorker 6.1.2. Build 340 under Win2k (on laptop)

Hi Gurus,

Having installed the NetWorker client, set up the client on the server
and
tried to perform a backup of the laptop I get the following error:

--- Unsuccessful Save Sets ---

* laptop:C:\sierra 1 retry attempted
* laptop:C:\sierra nsrexec: authtype nsrexec

However, the backup works fine when initiated from the laptop.

The host tables on both machines are okay and the NetWorker server name
is
in the /nsr/res/servers file on the laptop.  I'm confused because my PC
runs
the same client version under Win2k without any problems.

I should mention that the laptop is running Zero Knowledge's Freedom
firewall s/w.  Although we have tried disabling this the backup still
failed.

Any help would be gratefully received.


Best regards,

Vince
