Are you calculating the backup time correctly?

Note that if you have one single file you're interested in, you can pass
that to nsrinfo to just see all the versions of it.  As an example...

$ nsrinfo -N /var/adm/messages client
scanning client `client' for all savetimes from the backup namespace
/var/adm/messages, date=1076085426 Fri Feb  6 08:37:06 2004
/var/adm/messages, date=1075927189 Wed Feb  4 12:39:49 2004
2 objects found

There the dates given are the dates of the backup (the savetime) and
should also be usable as arguments to -t.  Here's an example of that...

$ nsrinfo -t 1076085426 -N /var/adm/messages client
scanning client `client' for savetime 1076085426(Fri Feb  6 08:37:06
2004) from the backup namespace
/var/adm/messages
1 objects found

Since I gave an explicit savetime, it doesn't show the time in the
output.

If you need to know the file asze to help determine which version you
want, use -v.  I'm not certain that you can see the file timestamps with
nsrinfo.
