Definitely one of my pet peeves, and I think I even pissed off one of
the EMC/Legato engineers when I had the chance to talk to him about it.
They still believe that the 7.4 version is more superior, but quite a
few people still enjoy the 7.2 version.
We simply keep a copy of it on one of our old servers, and use it from
there. We still have to use 7.4.4 for some things, you can't get around
that. But for plain old monitoring, 7.2 is the one we use.

Subject: [Networker] nwadmin with Networker 7.4
All,
I was looking back with some curiosity to see if anyone was still
unhappy
about not having nwadmin anymore. I find it occasionally useful, like
nsrwatch,
but better. I haven't seen anything on the list recently, so I assume
most
everyone is happy with the current offerings.
But in case you like the simplicity of nwadmin, here's what I did:
On one of my storage nodes, running 7.4.4,
I placed the following 2 files from a 7.2.1 Linux distribution:
/usr/bin/nwadmin
/usr/lib/X11/app-defaults/networker
The 7.4.4 distribution had placed a small
"networker" file in /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults, which
I renamed. So far I haven't seen any negative result
from that. And as far as I can see, I've got a working
nwadmin.
If this has already been discussed, sorry for any wasted bandwidth.
Matt Temple
