Verify that you have the correct media/master. very the date is correct sometimes netbackup comes up with a default date of 2000 or something. You can also go to reports and see if you got a backup on that client using the client backup report.

On the master server run
UNIX
# bpimagelist -U -client -hoursago 999

W2K(3)
$INSTALL_DIR\NetBackup\bin\admincmd\bpimagelist -U -client -hourago 999

Also make sure that the 'type' of backup has been set correctly.
For a Windows client, you'll want 'Microsoft-NT' as opposed to 'Standard'

Also double check that the client name on the client matches exactley to the client name on the master server. Clients can back up but not always restore if named on one in upper and the other in lower case.
