Both are Networker 7.1  Everything else is working just find. The only
difference, this is a workstations and it is several buildings away.
Everything else that is backed up is on the same subnet and in the same building running windows server. They seem to get about half way and then
they time out. Below is the message I get back.

I have seen that kind of thing happen with backups of Windows servers in at least three contexts. First, make sure that reverse DNS between dixxwkcmd000100.nae.ds.army.mil and your NetWorker
server works, and vise versa.

Next, make sure that dixxwkcmd000100.nae.ds.army.mil has no restrictions on running any of
the NetWorker binaries.

Next, make sure the appropriate TCP/IP ports are open between the server and client if a firewall
sits between them.

And finally, make sure the Networker service is running on dixxwkcmd000100.nae.ds.army.mil. Actually,
this would be the first thing I would check.
