Hi all,
Part 1:
I have the problem referanced in a couple of KB articals about the Utility Partition and the Volume Shadow Copy selections not showing up. I tried the fix (enable restrict anymous), but that did not work....
For clarity here is the setup I'm working with...
All my servers (nearly all are 2003 std) have 2 nic's, the primary nic's are 10/100 connected to my regular network (DNS, AD, etc.) The 2nd NIC is an IP only Gig network and the plan was to use this as the "data" connection for backup exec. Not only faster, but removes the traffic from our regular LAN traffic.
HOWEVER...
If I select the server by it's DNS name (ie over the regular nic) the Utility and Shadow options are there. If I try to select the same server via a user defined share to the IP address, those two things will not show up.
Part 2:
I would also like to use Backup Exec to backup my servers in my DMZ. However I've tried eveything I can think of and I still cannot get the Backup server to authenticate with the DMZ servers. My firewall (3Com Superstack 3 a.k.a. SonicWall 6.x) by default allows all traffic from the LAN into the DMZ, but blocks all traffic from the DMZ back into the LAN. I setup a 1 to 1 NAT for the backup server to give it a public IP, and then I setup firewall rules to allow my chosen backup exec ports thru to the LAN side. (I gave the DMZ servers LMHOST entries). However Vertias still gives me the auth. error when I try to connect to them. I am not allowing NetBios traffic (139, 445, etc.). What am I missing here??
