Yeah, I’ve already added the system to bp.conf but no luck.

The user I’m logged in as on the Windows box doesn’t have admin privileges 
there but I don’t have any issue providing that user root login on the master 
server, which is the account I’m using when providing credentials via the admin 
console.

I’ll check the port config guide, I’m thinking I missed a port somewhere…

David, 
The port configuration guide does a pretty good job at showing what ports are 
required. For the Windows Admin Console, I think you'll have to use Media 
Server ports as it's a stripped down Media Server. 

I've not tried using AD, but the authorization for Windows Admin Consoles 
requires SERVER= entries in bp.conf, again because it's an almost Media Server. 
Without NBAC, I don't think you can get around letting this admin log on 
without anything other than root priviledges, but then again, I've not tried to 
lock anyone down before.

[Veritas-bu] Windows Admin Console

 

                




So I’ve tried tracking down the process for doing this but have come up empty 
in both the admin guides and Symantec knowledge base.  I’ve opened a case with 
Symantec but it’s a 6 hour callback so I figured maybe someone here has this 
info or can refer me to a specific procedure in one of the guides that I’ve 
missed. 
  
Environment: 
NBU v6.5.3  on master server running Oracle Enterprise Linux (really just a 
useless version of RHEL). 
  
Specifically, I’m trying to configure the remote Windows admin console on a 64- 
bit W2K3 server to be used by a non-admin user with relying on Active Directory 
for authorization.  Oh yeah, this is behind a firewall too. 
  
The authorization configuration on the master server is rather cryptic and 
there just isn’t a clear step-by-step process on how to do this (from the 
packages I need installed on the master to the firewall ports to open to the 
actual config on the master).  I would have used the Java console instead but 
discovered there isn’t one for 64-bit Windows until 6.5.4 is realease. 
  
TIA, 
  
-Dave
