Ah, you get to learn the joys of nsradmin.

You want to set up your base schedule, let's call it "Full 1st Friday" as a weekly schedule with skips all seven days in the GUI. Then save the schedule and go to your Linux system and fire up nsradmin doing the following:

# nsradmin
nsradmin> . type: nsr schedule; name: Full 1st Friday
nsradmin> update override: full first friday every month
nsradmin> quit

(You can also use the print command to see the schedule in nsradmin before and after you do the update...)

Now, when you look at the schedule in the GUI, it will have the full scheduled for the first friday of every month (at least into 2038 when NSR time ends).
