    You DO NOT need all of those ports.

    Pre-7.0.1 will use vnetd (13724) only.

    As from 7.0.1, PBX (1556) will be tried first. If that fails, vnetd will be tried.

    Port requirements are documented in this TN: http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH136090

    The bpcd log above is from a successful connection.

    If no log is created on other clients, chances are that ports are blocked.

if the host is unix or linux insert in bp.conf file (SERVER = your_media_server).

or use a GUI, host prob -> clients -> rigth click ->prob, servers -> add in additional server the media server tha you use for backup.
