You need to delete the peer information for the affected client on the server

I think that the following will work on a windows server 

echo delete name: <client name>;type: NSR peer information | nsradmin  -p 
nsrexecd -i -

where <client name> is the name of the client that you have the conflicting nsr 
peer information errors

there should be no need to rename clients or do anything with the client ID

hope that this helps

Subject: [Networker] Rebulding Client from WinXP_64 to Win7_64

Hello,

Win2k8 Server / Legato 7.6.4 


I have installed the client on the newly rebuilt WORKSTATION. When trying to 
modify the client from inside the Networker Administration Console by right 
clicking the client and select Client Backup Configuration / Modify  it reports 
an error : Authentication Warning - Conflicting NSR peer information resources 
detected for host <hostname>.

I think the problem is that the Client ID is no longer the same since this 
client now has a completely different OS.

I see the directions in the Administration Guide "Changing a client name" where 
I could create a new client, name it "old_machine" or something and give it the 
client ID from the old XP_64 machine. 

Then create another new machine and point it at the new install of Win7_64, but 
I'm not sure if I have to go to those lengths. 

Ideas?

Joe
