That means you have the 'dhcp' box checked in the hosts entry, but
nmblookup can't find it (not running samba, not on the right network,
etc.).

If the target has a static IP, uncheck the dhcp box.  If your DNS
won't resolve the name, in the per-host config under Backup_Settings,
put the IP address in ClientNameAlias.
