Hi Tim,
I have over 1200 clients. If I have run this from each client that is a
painful one. Can I run this from any Backup Server.

You run this from any system that contact the client via RPC, so running
it from the backup server should be fine.  When I do this, I typically
run it from the backup server, because then I can do something like this:

for c in `nsr_clist`
do
        v=`nsr_get_client_version_from_client "$c" 2>/dev/null`
        printf "client: %-45.45s  version: %-15.15s\n" "$c" "$v"
done | tee clients-and-versions-20071127


Where "nsr_clist" runs the necessary nsradmin command to get a list of
clients defined within NetWorker.
