I got two answers to my question both accurate and quick!
The problem was that networker client doesn't respond with its FQDN when
asked by server.
I just added to the aliases section in the client window the 'short
name' of the host (without mydomain.es) and it started working.
Thanks a lot to

Check that you have camelot set up as an alias to the client
camelot.unirioja.es. I see this all the time with servers which don't
respond with their FQDN when asked. (Select the client from the list in
the
"clients" window and ensure that camelot - with no extensions - is
listed in
the aliases section).

You have to add the NSR client with the exact same hostname that
'hostname'
returns, else it'll get confused. (Actually, come to think of it, as
long as
your NSR-defined hsotname is in the client's /etc/hosts file, maybe... I
forget)
But that's at least related to the problem -- confusing between hostname
and
fully qualified domain name.
