Use show for the attributes you want to see, print to select the
resources.

nsradmin> show name; comment
nsradmin> print type:nsr client

Scripted...

printf "show name;comment\nprint type:nsr client\n" | nsradmin -i -

However, I don't know that you can ask it for the exact layout you
want.  Nsradmin output is one attribute per line, with a blank line
separating resources.

I would post-process the output with perl or awk or something.
