Gavin,
Oracle RMAN restores are to be done using RMAN scripts. To restore database
froma tape taken a few
days back, there is one RMAN command in the scripts...I don't remember the
command but i.e. what we
call point in time restores.
This sockets error would get recitified using -
>From nwadmin window, Select Options->configure ports...Enter the Networker
>server name and check
service ports to 7937-9936 & Communications ports 10001-30000.
Regards,
Anuj

One thing that does appear in our daemon.log is hundreds of messages
like:
08/01/05 15:17:10 ansrd: Cannot bind socket to connection port in configured
port range on system
astro.
This is on the Networker server, astro, so it's trying to connect to itself.
There's no firewall running on the local machine, so it should connect.
nsrports is left to the default, which by my calculations is plenty of
ports.
Cheers,
Gavin.
