ok.. if anyone gets this error. then the solution is this.
It usually isn't necessary to install remote agents on windows xp machines, but if for some reason you do have windows xp on remote pc's then remote agent software needs to be installed. on the backup server locate the rant32 folder, which is in the symantec or veritas folder. copy folder to local machine. from the command prompt goto rant32 and type setupaa.cmd
And thats it.

Or from the Administration Console click Tools, Install Remote Agents and follow the steps (provided you haven't got Windows Firewall active).
