I recall there was a problem when Networker started..it checks the /nsr/index
directory and issued as error/warning (in the daemon.log file) if the number
of entries in there was
greater then the number of licenses.  When one deletes a client it still
leaves a subdirectory in /nsr/index...as these accumulate one may go over the
license limit.

This message was harmless; I don't recall what version they fixed it in.  One
can always clean out /nsr/index of these (with networker shutdown of course).
