I didn't think Legato would ever have any quirkiness in JBCONFIG ;)

Yes it does, or at least it appears to based on configuration of my JB
and clients under 6.1.3.  
 
When running JBCONFIG, it asks me whether my device I am currently
defining is an NDMP drive, if I say yes, I must provide NDMP user ID and
password.
 
When setting up clients, I can specify whether a client is an NDMP
client or not.
 
To me this would indicate that NDMP is supported.

        Jim, 

        NetWorker 6.1.3 For Windows does not support NDMP.  

        NetWorker 6.2 For Windows and NetWorker 7.0 For Windows support
NDMP. 

        Hope this helps, 
        Tien
