Update: NetWorker Client for NetWare 4.22 should be posted by
end-of-business today.
I asked about the saveset recovers, and while not 100% (they didn't
have the release notes for 4.22 in their hands yet). It will NOT be
fixed in 4.22. The issue is that permissions changed from pre7 to 7.
Hence any client pre7 won't work.

I'm a bit confused.. are you saying then that a newer Netware client
will
be able to browse and recover savesets backed up with the old release?
