Well... you are starting a NEW thread without saying as much in your subject line;;; but, I'll answer anyway --- BUT the details will be left as an exercise for the student.
Just write a menu program that (a) prevents escape to command-line, and (b) invokes dsmc under the user's ID with the menu prompt for filespec -- as in "dsmc restore %1"... the user can restore only files he has sufficient rights to write/create.

I'm still missing quotas for client backup and archive space. And I'm still looking for a possibility to allow clients to restore their data but not to do backups. We backup our /home filesystem at night, but we want to allow our users to restore the files in their homedirectories themselves without doing backups or creating archives. Networker always had different client programs for backup and restore.
