Donna,

/NEWACCT is an invalid account name. You don't want to use HFS syntax to
rename the account.

You are probably lucky that it failed. Don't forget that the ;DIRECTORY
option restores the *entire* directory for the system, not just the
directory associated with the fileset to be restored. More than one system
admin has accidentally overwritten current passwords with previous ones by
using the ;DIRECTORY option to restore files from an old tape.

Doug.
