I have MANY servers that were created without a directive set and I would like to assign them one in mass. How can I do a search with nsradmin for a blank directive?

Here is what I am using:

nsradmin -s [server]
show name
print type: nsr client; directive: ??? <- What goes here?

Different versions of nsradmin have reacted differently here, but I
would try:

directive: ^$

In order for that to work, you may have to first in nsradmin type:

option regexp on

(or even just "option regexp")

It's not on by default these days. E.g.:

nsradmin> option regexp: on
Regexp display option turned on

Display options:
        Dynamic: Off;
        Hidden: Off;
        Raw I18N: Off;
        Resource ID: Off;
        Regexp: On;
nsradmin> print type: NSR client; directive: ^$
                        name: delphi;
                   directive: ;


Cheers,

Preston.
