Guys i'm a unix/solaris engineer day to day and while i have XP on my 
laptop from day to day work, administrating Windows at a high level is 
not necessarily my forte.

I have Netbackup 5.0MP7 (dont ask, due for upgrade shortly). with 
various unix/windows clients.

We have added some new windows 2003 clients and are having trouble with 
connection status 58.

There is no DNS involved and the Master server (solaris) can telnet to 
client ports 13782 and 13724
Vnetd has been configured for the clients with bpclient -client <client> 
-add -no_callback 1.

The issue we have is the Windows client itself doesnt seem to look for 
entries in %systemroot%/system32/drivers/etc/hosts  and i can't figure 
out why.

I can connect to the master server by ip on ports 13724 and 13782 but 
not via name we have configured.

If we configure the name in lmhosts it can telnet via name but Netbackup 
doesnt' work properly and can't connect.

I've googled but had no joy as was pointed to a reg key which may be 
affecting things but its not on this system.

Anyone any ideas?

Dave
