That is what I thought. But that didn't work for me ... however, I was 
also specifying the original client name, as well.

recover -s admnman004 -c ~nt_san1-1 -S 2932379725 -R nt_san1 -i R -d 
h:\temp h:\users\policeops

So what I wanted was to restore "h:\users\policeops" out of SSID 
2932379725, which was originally backed up from client ~nt_san1-1, and 
redirect those files to h:\temp on client nt_san1. However, this command 
did not work; would not execute. Just gave me back a help screen, listing 
command line options. I was not trying this from my NW server, but from my 
NW Console client. (I think I also tried it from the destination client; 
i.e., nt_san1)

Perhaps I should not have had a space in "-i R"? Or should not have 
specified "-c ~nt_san1-1", and instead just specified the SSID? Dunno. At 
the moment, it's a bit of a moot point, since the decision was made that 
we could live without those files. But it would be nice to know for future 
reference.
