Not until someone writes the code to run NDMP on a Solaris machine.  If the 
spec is open, maybe someone should take a crack at it? :)

But seriously.... no one has written the code to have the NDMP "receiver" live 
on a Unix box rather than a NetApp.  I'd love for it to happen though.... 
would save me lots of trouble.
