From the error message, it is trying to do reverse lookup for IP address to DNS name.<br />
<br />
if you are using DNS, then add PTR record to your DNS. Please see:<br />

<br />
If not using dns, then add line to /etc/hosts file for the IP and map to host name.

Thanks for feedback...i guess this is true...but i dont wanna make change on dns server side...is there a way to force NetWorker to reverse lookup locally on the linux box
</div>

</div>


<div>
thank you omarfarid...i have tried it several times...does not work....am now with EMC NetWorker Support...i'll keep you updated if we find some solution without modif on DNS Server.
</div>


<div>
What is the config in /etc/resolv.conf file?
</div>


<div>
i will check tokorrow for this and let you know
</div>


<div>
Also, look at hosts: entry in /etc/nsswitch.conf
</div>


<div>
@ mos1234,<br />
<br />
Is the issue resolved?
</div>


<div>
solution was not found here ...am sorry
</div>


<div>
Then the question should be deleted.
</div>


<div>
Solution was through correcting name resolution problem on thé Linux.<br />
It seems that NetWorker client is very sensitive to name resolution on Clients.
