(I know it's rude to respond to your own post; sorry)
More searching of the list archives pointed me to:
<http://nsrd.wordpress.com/2009/01/27/basics-listing-files-in-a-backup/>
Which in turn, with a bit of thinking, led me to do this:
mminfo -avot -q
"client=BigSAN,volume=ClonedDiskVolumeName,name=H:\Users,savetime>=06/01/2009"
-r "volume,name,savetime(22),nsavetime"
which gave me:
name date time save time
H:\Users 6/1/2009 11:58:42 PM 1243915122
H:\Users 6/3/2009 12:04:03 AM 1244001843
And I then fed the "nsavetime" into nsrinfo, and got a satisying bunch of
data:
nsrinfo.exe -t 1243915122 BigSAN
SO now I should be able to re-direct the output to a text file, grep out
the non-offensive file types, and have a report I can wave under the noses
of the miscreant employees. :-)
Thanks, and sorry for wasting the bandwidth. And thank you Preston!
