I am trying to set up a new Red Hat Linux VM to be backed up to my Red Hat 
Linux NetWorker server. Both the client and the server are running NetWorker 
7.5SP3. The problem is that this particular client tries to connect to the 
server as if it the server and so I get an error that the client's root user 
needs to be put on the server's remote access list. If I make that change, then 
I do a backup, what gets backed up is the server's data, not the client's. I 
have never seen anything like this before and it has me baffled.

I checked all the usual stuff such as ping in both directions and reverse DNS 
on both the client and the server for both of them. It all works fine. If 
anyone has any ideas on how to fix this, please let me know.
