Can't connect to client in DMZ

Ok, I just can't see why this isn't working. Here are in the details.

I have 2 clients in our DMZ that need to be backed up. The clients are running Windows 2008 and have the client for 2008 loaded. The master and media server is listed and the Hosts files have been modified with the master and media server added. The master and media server are running 6.5.3.1 and the hosts files were modified to include the clients. The ports on the firewall have been openned. These two were part of a group of 6 clients that were loaded at the same time, each loaded the same way. The other 4 work fine. I went back and checked the configs and they are correct. Yet they will not connect.

Does anyone have any ideas for me?

Thanks,

I am still having the problem but, looking into it further, on the two that are failing it appears that vnetd isn't open on the client server. At least netstat shows they aren't listening to port 13724. Not sure where to go from here.

Please help.
 
Question:

Did you open up the 'Client Attributes' dialog in the Master Server Properties in your admin console?

I have always had to add a DMZ client in this dialog box and specify for it to use VNETD in the 'BPCD connect back' box

I'm sure you already did this. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't something simple.

Only thing I can think of.

Good luck!
