Netbackup can read BackupExec Media but I don't think it works the other way 
around.  Further, you are sending data from a recent version of Netbackup to a 
site running a 4+ year old version of BackupExec. If you've got a Unix/Linux 
server I've got some procedures you can use to read the data native off the 
media.  If not you are going to have to install Netbackup.

Correct me if I'm wrong-- but as far as I know NetBackup can read Backup Exec 
tapes but not vice versa.
