Nsrexecd Authentication Warning

Hello, I reinstalled the Networker Server (I did backup of the settings because the environment is not yet in production) and when I tried to configure the clients I get the following message:

"Nsrexecd Authentication Warning: The user's OS groups can not be verified and Will Not Be included in the credential. This means That remote hosts may not see the user the Being a member of any OS groups. Domain: NT AUTHORITY, User: SYSTEM."

Obs: NWClients had already been installed before and were communicating normally with NWServer. I reinstalled the NWServer but kept the installation of the clients.

Anybody have any idea what could be? Thank you.

    Peterson,

    Please add SYSTEM@* in the Configuration tab --> User Groups -->Administrators Properties -->Configuration and try. If its not working then add *@* and try.

    The NetWorker Error Message Guide which you can find on Powerlink at, for example:

    Home  >  Support  >  Technical Documentation and Advisories  > Software ~ J-O ~ Documentation  >  NetWorker Family  >  NetWorker  > 7.6 & Service Packs

    gives the following explanation for this error message:

    This is a Windows system message that indicates there is a new nsrexecd binary (7.3.2
    or greater) and an older NW RPC client binary (7.3.1 or 7.3) on the same machine. The
    most common case where this occurs is if there is a 7.3.1/7.3 Console server (gstd) or
    Module installation on the same machine as a 7.3.2 (or later) installation of the
    NetWorker client package. This message is more critical in the case of the Console
    server, which requires high privileges on the NetWorker server (for example, it needs
    the "Change Security Settings" privilege).

    The user who started the program will not appear to belong to any OS groups when
    communicating with NetWorker server processes. So, if you grant privileges using
    the OS group information, the program which is based off of 7.3.1 or 7.3 NetWorker
    will not receive the privileges that were assigned to that OS group, even if the user
    starting the program belonged to the group.


    This message does not indicate an authentication failure; however, some of the user's
    information (for example, group information) will be missing from the credential.
    Therefore, the user may not receive all of the expected privileges.

    -Bobby

    Panwar,

    thanks for the feedback, but unfortunately not solved. As I understand NWServer communicates with the client making through the authentication key exchange. Is to recreate the keys in both the clients and the Server?

    Coganb,

    thanks for the feedback, I've read various forums and manuals trying to solve the problem and unfortunately have not found the solution. Before formatting the server I should have made up something to prevent this kind of problem? I tried to keep all the previous settings to not have problems, so I do not understand why does not work.

    Found the solution.

    On the client typed the following command:
    $ nsradmin -s -p nsrexec type:NSRLA

    And I changed/added lines in red in the example below.

    - Client name = master or master.local

    - Server name = srvnetwork

    type: NSRLA;
                            name: master;
    NW instance info operations: ;
           NW instance info file: ;
              installed products: NetWorker 7.6.Build.142;
                         version: EMC NetWorker 7.6.Build.142 11/07/09;
                            name: master;
    NW instance info operations: ;
           NW instance info file: ;
              installed products: NetWorker 7.6.Build.142;
                         version: EMC NetWorker 7.6.Build.142 11/07/09;
                         servers: ;
                    auth methods: "0.0.0.0/0,nsrauth/oldauth";
                   administrator: administrador@netclient,
                                  "isroot,host=srvnetwork", root, root@master,
                                  root@master.local, SYSTEM@*,
                                  "user=administrador,host=srvnetwork",
                                  "user=root,host=localhost",
                                  "user=root,host=master.local";
                     kernel arch: x86_64;
                        CPU type: x86_64;
                    machine type: desktop;
                              OS: Linux 2.6.18-164.15.1.el5;
               NetWorker version: 7.6.Build.142;
                  client OS type: Linux;
                      IP address: 10.10.10.10, 192.1.1.148,
                                  "fe80::250:56ff:fea6:7340%eth0",
                                  "fe80::250:56ff:fea6:337d%eth1";
             resource identifier: 4.0.46.22.0.0.0.0.191.41.32.76.0.0.0.0.10.10.10.10(16);

              Thanks to everyone that I have returned.
