i saw this happen when my inetd.conf file was reset.  there should be a line
for the bpcd process to start up:

$ grep bp /etc/inet/inetd.conf
bpcd    stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpcd bpcd

hope this helps,
jerald

I hve several Unix servers that I backup with my NT Master and Unix Media
Servers....I'm at ver 3.2.   Today I added one more unix client.  this
client will not back up.  It returns with status 57.  I checked the bp.conf
and the servers are listed there and all machines can see each other through
pinging.  What I am missing.  Can anyone please help.
