Backup always failing with socket error
Backup is always getting failed for one client with socket error even after reInstalling Netbackup client and rebooting Server.

We are unable to ping / telnet /nslookup Master server Hostname from client server
Please double-check that Notepad did not add .txt to the hosts filename. (Extensions are normally hidden for known file types.)
If you are unable to ping, telnet, nslookup, you are right - this is OS issue. Your Windows team need to resolve.
One more thing:
I had a similar issue when I added hosts file entry on my own laptop for our in-house demo appliance.
The anti-virus software on my laptop prevented hosts file to be edited and hosts file was saved as hosts.txt.
I had to temporarily disable AV in order to rename hosts file.Something else to check when OS lookup is sorted out:
Ensure that Windows firewall is turned off on the client.
