Re: [Networker] Windows Client Access Problem

Matt,

You need to follow "How to Rename a NetWorker Client (UNIX)" publication 
(bulletin #138).

Basically you need to:
1. Obtain the Client ID using mminfo -av -r clientid,client  | uniq | grep 
your-client-name
2. Delete the client
3. Stop Networker daemons
4. Move /nsr/index/old-client-name /nsr/index/new-client-name
5. Start Networker daemons
6. Create the new-client-name using the Client ID obtained from step 1.  <== 
Important
7. Add old-client-name to the alias
8. Stop Networker daemons again
9. Start Networker daemons.

Subject: [Networker] Windows Client Access Problem


Hey All.

We added a Windows client to an Active Directory domain.  This gives the client 
another hostname which we put in as an alias into the Networker server Client 
Setup page (this client was getting backed up successfully before we added it 
to the domain).

The server is a Solaris 8 box.  Ever since then, backups have been failing with 
the following error message:

* host.domain.com:All 1 retry attempted
* host.domain.com:All Connection refused
* host.domain.com:All aborted due to inactivity

On the client, host.domain.com, I see the following error message in the 
daemon.log file:

10/13/03 01:32:43 AM nsrexecd: Access violation - unknown host:

On our other Solaris and Linux boxes, under Client Setup and in the Remote 
Access field, we've put root AT server.domain DOT com and that seems to fix the 
problem for those platforms when this problem as arrose.  Is this what I should 
do to the Windows client properties?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

-Matt
