Hi,
the answer is in your error message. Legato Networker does not support cross
platform restore via the GUI, use the recover command.

It looks like cross platform recovery to me. You are trying to recover
data from a W2K client to your Linux NetWorker server.
With the CLI recover program you will need to add a -d parameter in
order to write the data back to the client rather than the server. With
nwrecover you probably can't do it, since I think that even at 7.1.2
there is no directed recovery option in the Unix GUI. If it was the
other way round (W2K server and Linux client) it would be possible.
