Hi,
In the past when bootstrap does not print as expected, it turned out to be 
Networker problems, subsequent updated versions fixed the issues.
Meanwhile, can you send the output of bootstrap to nsrlog etc to see if 
networker is processing it or not ?
You can configure more then one notification for the same process\actions 
by creating new notifications and selected appropriate options.
Could blat help ?

Re: [Networker] Multiple actions for bootstrap report






Thanks for the information.  I'll instead have the notification call a 
script to write the data to a file, and then have that script do what 
I want with the output.

I still am wondering though - can Networker have and use 2 
notifications with the same event and priority?
