Im having a very strange problem with Netbackup 5.0MP7 on Solaris connecting to a windows 2003 client.
Couple of the windows clients have been upgraded to 2003 and after installing the client i cannot back them up and get status 25. Using the gui shows cannot connect on socket (Status 25). The strange thing is i can connect using telnet and following checks using the detailed status 25 pdf i have. I have uninstalled the client and re-added it. I have done the same on the master server also for the policies etc. I have vnetd enabled on it so it should use port 13724 for backups and 13782 for control afaik. See below :- (I have left the client name as is but removed the server name and xxx some of the ip ranges but left the last octet visible) [Testing from server to client] [EMAIL PROTECTED] telnet RES-NETDOCS.nmcres.local 13782 Trying xxx.xxx.xxx.44...

[Testing from client to server] Works, but on windows the screen goes blank on connection using telnet so i cant show this. It does work.
