I'm having trouble with a DU4.0D bare metal restore.  Fortunately, this is
only a DRM _test_, but...

I have:
 - reloaded a 4.0D OS from CDROM
 - loaded an ADSM client (V3.1.0.3) from CDROM
 - invoked dsmc, and tried to reload / using
        res -fromnode=webster2 -su=y -replace=all "/*" /
   (restore all from the node in question, replacing everything)

On many (important) files, I get:

        Restoring         131,072 /sbin/loader --> /sbin/loader

        --- User Action is Required ---
        File '/sbin/loader' is write protected

        Select an appropriate action
          1. Force an overwrite for this object
          2. Force an overwrite on all objects that are write protected
          3. Skip this object
          4. Skip all objects that are write protected
          A. Abort this operation

I can _not_ choose any of the "force replace" options.

How is this supposed to work?

Thanks.
