Backup Server: 10.1.1.1
Backup Client: 10.1.1.2

IPTables rules for the client:
incoming rules:
# NetWorker Service Ports: backup.server to backup.client
-A INPUT -i eth1 -s 10.1.1.1 -p tcp -d 10.1.1.2 --dport 7937:9936 -m
state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -i eth1 -s 10.1.1.1 -p udp -d 10.1.1.2 --dport 7937:9936 -m
state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
# NetWorker Data Ports: backup.server to backup.client
-A INPUT -i eth1 -s 10.1.1.1 -p tcp -d 10.1.1.2 --dport 10001:30000 -m
state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -i eth1 -s 10.1.1.1 -p udp -d 10.1.1.2 --dport 10001:30000 -m
state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT

outgoing rules:
# NetWorker Service Ports: backup.client >> backup.server
-A OUTPUT -o eth1 -p tcp -d 10.1.1.1 --dport 7937:9936 -m state --state
NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A OUTPUT -o eth1 -p udp -d 10.1.1.1 --dport 7937:9936 -m state --state
NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
# NetWorker data Ports: backup.client >> backup.server
-A OUTPUT -o eth1 -p tcp -d 10.1.1.1 --dport 10001:30000 -m state
--state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A OUTPUT -o eth1 -p udp -d 10.1.1.1 --dport 10001:30000 -m state
--state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT

The rules for the backup server are similar, one for each backup client.
Maybe You configure smaller ranges, if You count your machines and the
number of parallel backups. These rules work with NetWorker 6.x and 7.x.
On versions earlier then 6.x(if i'm right) You need the udp/tcp port 111
like Todd wrote. Both machines are on the same network(DMZ). I cannot
recommend any type of port forwarding or NAT. If You only have a few
machines in the DMZ take the Business or Workgroup Edition and run a
dedicated Backup Server for this zone.

Hi,
We are having some difficulty writing viable IPtables rules, which allow
a successful backup from client to
server using Networker.

client --> using IPtables
server --> not behind firewall

Has anyone written an IPtables rule for their Networker configuration,
that they would be willing to share?
It would be greatly appreciated.

thanks,
