     Download NBU Client patch files for Unix/linux from: www.symantec.com/docs/TECH199244

    Copy the 3 files to the Linux Client, join them as per instructions in the download page:
    cat "NB_CLT_7.5.0.5_tar-split.1of3" "NB_CLT_7.5.0.5_tar-split.2of3" "NB_CLT_7.5.0.5_tar-split.3of3" > "NB_CLT_7.5.0.5.tar"  
    then extract them using 'tar xvf NB_CLT_7.5.0.5.tar'.
    Next,  install using NB_update.install script.

    Not a good idea to run installation scripts from a Windows share.

    Can we assume that the client is already on 7.5?
