Yes, but we have 450 client definitions, when you use nsradmin in visual mode, you need to press the "next" button 400 times perhaps. It isn't even alphabetically.

The problem is that the people behind the firewall aren't really legato specialists. They just follow some simple procedure to do some simple admin work. It's not really interesting to learn them use commands with a lot of options. Try to teach the syntax of the nsradmin command prompt to someone who will only use it once in 2 weeks. That's impossible....

Hello,

90% of our team is located behind firewalls. The only way to reach servers is through ssh ports (2 hops). This implies that it is impossible to run the java tool on their pc. I made a script that starts te tool on the backupserver in an ssh session. That way, it is possible to run it through an ssh X session to a pc somewhere. This works, but very very slow. Are there other possibilities? I suppose a lot of organisations have there backupserver behind firewalls?

You can always use the command line tools, they are actually
quite good.
