Interested to know what you did when " DNS administrator removed the reverse lookup zones ".
Did you ask them to reinstate the reverse lookup, or reconfigure NetBackup to no longer require it, or what? I ask because occasionally we have discussions about this, and have a few environments without reverse lookup - as they are non-production we use hosts files, but I just wonder what 'most' people do.
