In this instance, I would be inclined to start a tcpdump like that below on both the -fd and -sd, start your backup and see where exactly the -fd tries to connect to. tcpdump -ni ethX tcp port 9103 The first question I suppose is to see what IP address the -fd is actually using to connect. The second is does the tcp handshake happen correctly and if so what happens then. Perhaps the -fd is connecting to the wrong IP, or it could be a firewall issue, or something else...?
