Somehow, I just dont get along with vnetd.

I am trying to set up the windows admin console to connect to a solaris
master server running 4.5FP6. A firewall separates the windows box from
the admin server.

Name resolution is fine between the 2 boxes and I have added a SERVER
entry to bp.conf on the master server with the name of the windows
admin box.

When starting the admin console on the windows box, however, snoop on
the master server shows that the return connection to the windows box is
being attempted on a random port - this is not allowed by the firewall.

I have tried adding the line
CONNECT_OPTIONS = windows-box 0 1 1
to the master's bp.conf and restarting NetBackup, this has not helped.

What am I doing wrong? For the java GUI, the configuration for vnetd is
made on the host running the GUI and not the master server - is this the
case with the windows admin console also?

Thanks in advance,
Bruce
