	Hey Ollivier, good to hear from you. :)  Thanks for the tip, we got that
up and loaded and it works great. I had to install the aout compat
libraries, but other than that (and the weird error below) it seems to be
working fine. 

	The one nit is an error in the legato nsrd log. 

NetWorker: Unable to contact system to determine port ranges:
 hostname.NetWorker: RPC error, Port mapper failure
(severity 4, number 14)

	In spite of that error message the nsr client/server seems to be
working, I'm just curious if anyone knew what the error meant. I halfway
suspect that the nsrd is sending some weird, proprietary RPC command that
our portmapper doesn't understand, but I thought I'd pick the collective
brain a bit. (Yes, we're contacting legato, but any sentence that includes
the words "operating system other than sun" ends in, "we don't support
that.") 

	Also, to add insult to injury the nsrd can't connect to the client
to do the restore at all. It is able to read the info from the client
(freebsd) machine, but we have to do a "restore" locally then transfer the
files to the test machine.

Thanks,

Doug
