You can also run, from the master/media servers:
Bptestbpcd -client <clientname> -debug

The debug switch is undocumented and will give you a lot of output that
looks like/is log entries. This may help you figure out your problem.

Have you checked bpcd log on the client?

Thank you,
Rusty

Hi Wayne

Try to telnet <master server> 13720 from the client, checks connection to
bprd

You might have to install some compat libriaries know this has been
the case on other Unix/Linux systems

ldd against the netbackup commands might give an indication

Hope this helps

Michael
