Hi Chris,

     Thanks man ... based on the tip that you gave, we realized that the
client is responding to the server on another IP instead of the one in the
HOSTS file. As a workaround, we used that IP and were able to backup the
client.

     Once again, thank you.

Regards,
Kevin

 From the master server can you use 'bpdir -M systemname' and get a list 
of files? If not, the install *is* the issue.

Try to make sure the server names are all there, that the master is 
(current) and everything is CaSE SeNsiTiVE. Server names and especially 
client name. These will all give the 54 error...
