I have two backup exec server on my network, one for the Central Admin Sserver and the other for the Manage media server, but after i have install the caso on the other server, while trying to install the the manage backup exec server it gave me an error '' unable to verify if WINSVR7 is a valid Central Admin Server because of a connection failure.please verify that the user currently logged in has administrative rights to WINSVR7'' .

Both servers are up and running....

I will appreciate if there is a quick response.

thanks

to help check for any DNS issues make sure you can ping the MMS by name and that the Backup Exec services are running.

What version of Backup Exec are you using?  Both versions on the CAS server and MMS needs to be the same.
