Hey!

Well I would love to run the command from your NetBackup server 
"bptestbpcd -client< clientname>"  but the command isn't available in 
/opentv/netbackup/bin?

Is there an additionnal package to install?


    Are the firewalls of server and client open in both directions for port 
13724?

Well to be sure no firewall was causing any blocking issues, I ran the command
svcadm disable svc:/network/ipfilter:default on the solaris sever 
and also disable completely the windows firewall on the windows server 2003 
client!

    If using DNS (why aren't you using DNS?!), make sure forward and reverse 
DNS lookups work.

After, I do use DNS, but I also added the host/IP in the host files of each 
client/server.
dns lookup works well

    Ensure the NetBackup server(s) is/are properly  listed in the client 
configuration.

How do you check that? Just looking in the backup, Archive and REstore 
interface? If yes, the netbackup server is ok!

    For Windows, ensure the NetBackup Client Service is started on the client.

Checked it, and it's ok!

    For Windows, does the domain controller know of the NetBackup servers?

in term of IP ? or in term of user authorization,

  If multiple paths (IP addresses) are available, ensure NetBackup uses the 
path you want 
I've got only one nic enable for the moment


One thing however: on the windows client, when I run the bpcd command, it 
generates the following log:

18:37:59.550 [3396.3636] <2> bpcd main: offset to GMT -3600

What to think about this?
