You could also put the commands into a file and then execute them with
nsradmin -i:

c:\Program Files\Legato\nsr\scratch>type myfile
print type: NSR client; group: groupName
update browse policy: X; retention policy: Y

c:\Program Files\Legato\nsr\scratch>nsradmin -i myfile

This works in both Unix and Windows. In Unix you could do it all from
the command line without a file:

echo "print type: NSR client; group: groupName \n update browse policy:
X; retention policy: Y" | nsradmin -i -

Note you can also do ". type: NSR client; group: groupName", but using  
"print" is preferable simply because it always lets you see what  
you're going to be changing in advance.

Cheers,
