Dan,

Try starting the client on the machine where you're doing the restore to
with the option -virtualnodename or -nodename and specify the source system.\
You'll need to know the node's password to do this.

We want to be able to retrieve archived files to a different system for
cases in which the original system is no longer available (crash, DR,
etc.).  I tested doing a retrieve from a different system using the
-fromnode option, but it worked only after I did a 'set access' for the
new node from the original system.  In a real situation, I wouldn't be
able to go back to the original system to do a 'set access'.  Is there
any way to handle this scenario other than doing a preemptive 'set
access' from all systems allowing retrieves anywhere?

Thanks,
