Also, if you do use csh, make sure you have "#!/bin/csh -f" at the top, else 
different users may experience different results when executing the script.

HTH :-)

This not only provides us with little help, but also, it trend to insult our
"small" intelligence (after all, we post to this list looking for help,
right?). 

You mean "we are doing something wrong" ?
You mean "we are stupid NOT TO KNOW why we are doing it the wrong way" ?
You mean "you are very smart because you DO know the base of our problem and
you are NOT willing to tell us" ?

OMFG ... you'd better NOT ANSWER AT ALL !!!

This will not work reliably. NetWorker does not always fill in these fields,
and also they can become outdated following client upgrades. You need to
query the client directly, as I posted earlier.

csh for scripting eh? Try digging around on the net for the document
containing numerous reasons not to!  :-)
