hi, I am tsm and firewall admin so I did it without reading too much but watching the logs.
Just Allow following Connections: Clients ->>> TSM Server on Port 1500 (tcpport on dsm.opt) TSM Server ->>> Clients on Port 1501 This is for schedmode promted [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 09.10.2002 17:26 Please respond to ADSM-L To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject: Re: Backing up machines through the fire wall (In the DMZ) We use Server prompted on all backups, with the SCHEDMODE PROMPTED in the dsm.sys, or dsm.opt files depending on the OS. I don't think this will help with the DMZ though.

At present, as far as I'm aware the clients poll the server. This is of course a security risk. I'm sure this may have been touched on in other discussions, but it's something I'm new to. Can anyone tell me how make it so that the Server polls the clients. Is this a simple procedure or something more complex.
