Wy bothering with scripts that way. It is very hard to do it.

Write the script you want- lets say a script that will open a xterm from a
unix client to your pc.
Backit up and then restore it to the client you want to, at netbackup/bin
directory and change the name to bpstart_notify.paparia
Make a policy for this client and name it paparia. Backup the /tmp.
Run it.
You will have a nice xterm at your desktop. 
This is something all backup programs will do.(every program can execute a
pre and post backup script)

If you don't trast the backup admin fire him.  He knows the passwords of
oracle databases, Informix etc. He can do 
anything with your data, even duplicate them and post them to your enemy.

And for Windows clients, you can certainly get and put any file on the
server from the master. I don't know if you can execute it after you've put
it there.

You have to trust your backup admins.
