This took all day to suss out.

If you have gdb installed on your NBU6.5 server, then this script will
start nbgp with some suitable args and then sets a breakpoint when it
calls it's internal function "copy_file_from_server". At this point we
squirt in a new filename then continue execution and bingo, you can pull
whatever you want from any client.

Usage: scriptname <client> <src> <dest>

eg: my_bpgp.ksh my_server01 /etc/passwd /tmp/passwd_from_01

Here's the script: apart from the shebang it's all one line. Take off
the dev/null 2>&1 if you don't trust me on my first post and want to see
what it's doing. I won't be insulted :) The printf is 'typing'
instructions to gdb, passing in dummy args (-po DBEXT and -job 2).
Unhindered, the program would attempt to fetch
/usr/openv/tmp/blahblah_DBEXT.2.trace_file - nbgp is like bpgp except it
only pulls certain files. What we do is trap it's internal call to the
function copy_file_from_server and clobber in our own filename.

#!/bin/ksh
printf "set write\nbreak *copy_file_from_client+0x10\nrun LOG -cl $1 -po
DBEXT -job 2 -lfn $3\ncont\nset \$i3=\"$2\"\ncont\nq\n" | gdb
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/nbgp > /dev/null 2>&1
