legato -- no networker servers found
|
|
| cconnell_1@lycos.com 2005-06-16, 5:47 pm |
| I have set up legato networker clients and servers 7.1.2.
Server is solaris, clients are windows.
2 of our clients are on another subnet from the server, they
backup ok, but when I run the networker user program on both these
clients to restore data, they cant find the server, I get the error
message "no networker servers found", the clients on the same subnet
work fine.
does anyone know why this is? I have a feeling the networker user
program sends out some sort of broadcast/mulitcast to find the server,
but when the server replies it seems to stick in the config somewhere.
I dont think these broadcasts are getting to the server as the clients
are on a different switch and subnet.
Any help appreciated.

Ensure that you are using the "-s <fully qualified servername>" switch
on your Windows client Networker user program.

Thanks, where do you set that exactly? Do you call it from the command
line somehow?
Because, when I run the networker user program, it says 'searchiong for
networker servers' then says 'no networker servers found' then the
program closes completely! and I cant even specify the server name etc.

Right-click on the program and select properties.
In the target field, put the current entry inside double-quotes and
then add -s <servername> outside the quotes.
Click OK.
