The solution (that I haven't had a chance to try yet) is to either use
tar with a "p"` parameter to preserve permissions. Or use
the Networker "nwrecover" command from the new client and specify the
old client on the command line. For example:
nwrecover -s <networkerservername> -c <client_name>
( or use just plain
"recover -s <networkerservername> -c <client_name>"
"In other words, run nwrecover from the system you want the files to be
restored to". Then, cd to the directory (filesystem) that you're
interested in , use the "relocate" command to direct the
recovered files where you want them(e.g., relocate /mnt), then
use the command "recover" to recover the files.
I'm recovering the files now via the Networker "recover" command and
they're being restored where I want them. Many thanks to the kind
people who responded to my somewhat desperate plea!!!
