Hi List,

just thought i'd let you all know what was the cause:

the data was on a storage node, that was misconfigured in the 'servers' file. 
you couldn't do a directed recover from that node to that client.
thanks for all the suggestions

Kind Regards,

Kris,

Ping does not mean anything, you need to use nslookup from the clients to the 
server and vice versa. Better still, on Solaris use 'getent hosts <client 
name>', this way Solaris takes nsswitch.conf into account.

Regards,
Koen

Dear Lis and Stefan

The Desktop from which the recovery occurs is a separate machine, which we use 
dedicated for directed recoveries. we tried full mesh pings on hostnames for 
the old machine, the new one, the legato server and the 
directed-recovery-console, ie everyone can reach everyone and everyone knows 
everyone's name

we also tried to recover files from other backups than the old machine towards 
the new one, and they all succeed. it's very weird.

Met Vriendelijke Groet,

Are you dong a recovery from a desktop machine (ie invoking recovery from 
desktop of old server to new server)? If so, does the backup server know about 
the desktop machine? Try putting the ip address into the backup servers hosts 
file and see if that helps.

Hi,

when doing a Directed recover of data from the backup of an old machine to a 
new one (Networker 6.1 @ Solaris, to Win2K) i receive an error: RPC Unknown 
Host.

the new machine can backup and restore fine from/to itself tho.

any leads on where to look ?
