Simon,

As the old man, bob944, is saying the results your coworker is seeing is
expected.  A client and media server, by default, cannot restore data
except to themselves (clients) or the machines they backup (media
servers).  Only the Master server can restore to all machines;
therefore, the only machines that will have the three tabs are the
servers (Master and Media) 

Thanks, 
Rockey J. Reed

Would you really want any old Joe User to be able to restore the
Payroll_Server's files to a system of his choice?  I didn't think so.
