# start backup (from client) - depending on which server you wish to initate a backup with you may need to change this
/usr/local/aw/bin/nsdchat -c Server 10001 start now

# stop the deamon
/usr/local/aw/stop-server 

# start the deamon
/usr/local/aw/start-server

# connect to server (from client)
/usr/local/aw/bin/nsdchat -c Server configure <backup-server-host-name> <port> <backup-user> <backup-password> <backup-template>
   eg : /usr/local/aw/bin/nsdchat -c Server configure mybackupserver.mydomain.com 20000 mrbackup super!secr3ts 1000
   
# removes deleted workstation records on the server and all references to deleted workstation's snapshots
# it will leave the data (files and folders) in the B2Go repository. 
nsdchat -c Backup2Go cleanup

# removes deleted workstation records on the server and all references to deleted workstation's snapshots
# also removes the files and folders from the B2Go repository.
nsdchat -c Backup2Go cleanup snapshots trashes

# change user password (newer versions of P5 B2Go.
/usr/local/aw/bin/nsdchat -c User <username> password <newpassword> <oldpassword>
