Well here what you can use, open (CONFIG, 'printf \'show name;schedule;group;save set;backup command;comment
 print type:nsr client;name: 
\' | /usr/sbin/nsradmin -i- -s |')  or die $!; While( ) {      print $_.'
'; } HTH, Rovin D'Souza.

Hi,

This discussion might give you some help - there's a link to a perl script in there.

It doesn't do what you are looking for but you might be able to learn from it to develop what you need.

You can call the same query from perl and get the output in a perl variable. for eg: $clientinfo=`printf 'show name;schedule;group;save set;backup command;comment
 print type:nsr client;name: 
' | /usr/sbin/nsradmin -i- -s $server`;
