Windows Clients Cant Find Server

Post Windows Clients Cant Find Server 
Yoyo. Linux Networker server. Windows and Linux clients.

I can restore from a Linux client. But from Windows, when I open up Networker User, the program sits there searching for a server and craps out saying it couldn't find one.

Windows backups are working though. I must be missing something and it's prolly something really stupid. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Modify the shortcut properties for the Networker user shortcut. In the
box with the command line (I think it's labeled Target) add a -s
followed by your server's name outside of the double quotes. Make sure
you have exactly one whitespace before the -s.

The backup processes read that file and I believe the Administrator
program does also, but the user program does not for whatever reason.
Glad to help.
