That command tells the client to use non-reseved ports not Vnetd. Run
this command from the command line to set up the client to use Vnetd- 

To change the client from the command line, you could use the bpclient
command as follows-

bpclient -client (client name) -update -no_callback 1


Then run this to verify it is setup correctly- 

The output from running ./bpclient -client cdsntg02 -L is as follows:


Client Name: cdsntg02
 Current Host:
        Hostname: cdsntg02
        IP Address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
 Connect on non-reserved port:  no
 No call-back connections:      yes (means it is using Vnetd)
 Dynamic Address:       no
 Free Browse:   Deny
 List Restore:  Allow Both
 Max Jobs This Client:  5

Hope this helps,

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Firewall between master and client


I am using Netbackup 5.0 on solaris 9 master and client.

I am trying to backup a client behind a firewall. We opened bpcd port
(13782) from master to client and vnetd port (13724) from client to
master.

And I manually run the ./bpclient -client client_name -add
-connect_nr_port
1

I am still having a problem connecting from one to the other.

Any idea how to do this or a tech not available?

Thanks
-Daniel
