If you added the local storage node to the 'storage node' attribute in the 
client definition by itself or in front of nsrserverhost then it should be 
working. The index and bootstrap will always go across to the NW sever, but the 
client's data should go to the local storage node defined in it's client entry.

Okay I tried this but the data is still going to the backup server and
then to the storage node.  Not from the client to the storage node.  Am
I missing something?  I am snooping the interface between the client and
the storage node and there is no traffic.  Everyone says this should
work but it does not.  Any ideas?
