Client Access..... how to list all client

[LeDam]

I have this error in the log :

11/20/01 20:15:32 nsrexecd: Access violation - unknown host: 10.1.1.15

But nowhere is it specified that 10.1.1.15 must be backup! I have this error every 5 secondes! Can somebody help me?

This occurs when someone tries to access your Networker server usingn the GUI from an unauthorized console such as a workstation. You should try ping -a 10.1.1.15 to find out who is attempting to access the server and proceed from there.

10.1.1.15 reply... with that ping... and then what can i do??? This is not a networker client!!!

You need to identify which machine that is and find out why it is trying to access your server. The -a switch in ping will return the machine name if it exists. You may be able to use that to identify it.
You are getting this message because of an illegal access attempt via Networker. It is no different than someone trying to access your domain illegally. You should respond based upon whatyou find. It may be an innocent attempt to access the server, or something else. What that is, only you can determine.

Ping -a don't give me the hostname because this IP isn't specified in the hosts file.
10.1.1.15 is a UNIX machine of our computer park, but we never install networker! This machine isn't specified in the DNS server

i already read this page....
WE NEVER INSTALL THE CLIENT ON 10.1.1.15... that's strange!!

Is it possible to find out when this error appears?
What client is started when this error appears?

There is one possibility

-one of your clients reports back with primary NIC IP (which is 10.1.1.5).
-10.1.1.15 is not defined in local hosts (nor in DNS);
-10.1.1.15 cannot be resolved;
-error is reported.

What you can do is:

start every single backup group in verbose, probe mode.
Do it from the command line, like this:

savegrp -vvv -p <group name>

Output should contain info about every single client in the group (it will include client's IP addreses).

In fact, it do it every 5 seconds... All groups are backup (and stop) but this error continue to occure......
It happen when we upgrade the server to 6.1.1... after the reboot....
Strange no???
