Re: [Networker] Confirming an nsradmin query (attribute update)

It looks good to me, Tim. The only thing I'd do is add a semicolon at the
end of the "update ..." line.

You might want to test it, though: Create a group and add one client to it.
Run the command against that group and check it after you're done. Then
blast the production group.

using the host= format (aka any user at host) since these are dedicated
recover hosts, and I need to allow our Ops folks to do saveset recoveries
from them.
