Hey folks,

I need some help with doing backup through a firewall.

My networker server is version 7.6.3.3 (RedHat 5.5) and the client version 
7.5.4 (SLES 10.3).

I had the networker administrator opening the ports 111, 7937 and 7938 in both 
direction.

I can telnet from my networker server onto these ports and also in the 
direction from the client to the networker server.

The problem is that networker is not doing the backup. The backup jobs starts 
and just runs forever without transfering data.

I can't find any information in the daemon.raw on the client side. I mean that 
there must be any information that the backup starts. But nothing.

Can anyone help.

If you need me to provided more information, let me know.

Thanks in advance,
Jan.
