Eric -
Thanks, that did it. It took over 4 hours to run, but that finally did
it.
This was totally fascinating to watch (although frustrating, as well),
as it probably generated thousands of lines of code to watch.
As far as I can tell, this is the issue -
I run W2K on this machine, and when the service tried to start, it runs
through all of the clients (193 on this machine), and tries to resolve
them through DNS. Since the machine was not on the network, therefore
it had no way to resolve the names (unless I coded 193 names in a hosts
file). It would take 30 seconds per client to time out. Once it got
through all of that, it also did a consistency check on the media
database, and that took a while.
So, short of it, I'm up, and can modify what I need to modify (base
enabler and change server name), so that I can plug it into the network.
If anyone has any experience with changing a base enabler, let me know.
Legato says that I can do it witch the nsrcap command.
Thanks again for the tip, Eric, it saved me a lot of time with Legato on
Monday.

Yes, you can start NetWorker services if NetWorker is installed on a
stand alone computer. It was designed to work stand alone or on a
network.
If you want to find out why the nsrd and/or nsrexecd services do not
start, attempt to start them using the "-D number" command line option,
-D is for debug. For example,
nsrd -D 3
The debug information should be written to one of the NetWorker log
files - I think daemon.log file. If not that, then the messages file.

I'm trying to do something, and I'm wondering if it can even be done.
I'm working on my server that has been down for 3 months, and Legato
won't start (service fails to start). No error message, just an event
in the event log that says service stopped.
I don't have it plugged in to the network, and I'm wondering if that is
the problem? Can you have a Networker server run without being plugged
into the network?
I don't want to bring it online until I can change the name of the
server, and changed the enabler, as it is a duplicate.
I'm going to call Legato on Monday, just wondering is someone had any
ideas.
Thanks.
