Ok lets see...you cannot have two clients named fred with different
client IDs. You can copy the client ID from dummy and delete him.
Re-create fred client as fredold and paste the clientid into it. Create
a new client called fred with a new client id. 

Yes they do not make it easy.

Subject: [Networker] Need help with client

I created a new client named 'dummy' but gave this the same client id as

'fred'. fred is an old client that was taken off the backups a long time

back and there's no longer a client entry or a /nsr/index entry for it. 
Now, when I query the media database for fred, it no longer shows up. 
When I query it for dummy, all the entries for what was fred now show 
'dummy' as the client name.

How can I change this back?

I just want to have a new fred with a different client id than the old 
fred, but I still want the old fred to show up in the media database 
with its old client id and not dummy. Why can't NetWorker just make this

easy by giving us a feature to make renaming easier! Sheesh!
