Have you tried just the networks you have clients on
eg. 
bpcd: 172.30.10, 176.12.5

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Solaris 9 hosts.allow question

Hi,
I hope someone has run across this before. I have a Solaris 9 NetBackup
4.5FP4 master, with a mix of Solaris 8 (mainly) and several Solaris 9
clients. Currently, to make backups work on a Solaris 9 client, I have the
following entry in the hosts.allow (client side):

bpcd: ALL
bpjava-msvc: ALL
bpjava-susvc: ALL
vnetd: ALL

My question is, do I need the ALL statement on each line, or just the
netbackup master name on each line. My internal security group is looking
for a definitive answer on if/why the ALL statement has to be there. Also,
if anyone knows, why doesn't this have to be in the hosts.allow for Solaris
8 clients? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
