Did you do 'option regexp' ?

        Resource ID: Off;
        Regexp: Off;
nsradmin> show name
nsradmin> print type:NSR client;name: aristo*
No resources found for query:
                        name: aristo*;
                        type: NSR client;
nsradmin> option regexp

I am trying to use regular expressions in a query to nsradmin, and none
of the formats I have tried have worked...

show name
print type:NSR client;name:.*abc.* [ *abc*, \*abc\*. etc... ]

This shouldn't be this hard, but the manpage for nsradmin isn't usefull for this at all.

Thanks in advance,

Douglas
