It should be pointed out that these steps should only be carried out in
order to diagnose the problem. Using *@* in the administrators list leaves
your NetWorker server (and hence all your clients) wide open to all comers.

You should remove *@* from the admin list as soon afterwards as possible if
you are even slightly concerned about security.
