Thanks.  That's what I do now.  It just means that I have to specify all
the information (NDMP host, backup path) in the policy, then fire the
policy.  It seems like I should be able to give that to a backup command
to reduce the complexity.  (It would be easier than dealing with
bpplclients and bpplinclude..)

I think I'll have to script it to give the illusion of one.  :-)
