Checking the compatability guide, 11.04 is not supported.

This might work as a workaround :

I'm trying to install the client on 11.10. I know it's not supported, but I just want the JAVA administration console locally installed on my workstation.

Funny thing is that if it's installed on a version of Ubuntu that is supported, and then Ubuntu is upgraded to 11.10, everything still works 

Only 64-bit linux OS supported from version 7 (apart from FreeBSD), use the 6.5 installation files to install to 32-bit systems.

Nobody mentioned this is anything to do with 32 or 64 bit.

JAB3:

I've written some patches which when applied to the relevant installer scripts will allow you to install the NetBakup 7.1 client to any Ubuntu version:

I've just successfully installed the client in Oneiric 11.10 because I need the JAVA administration console. Remember though that Oneiric isn't supported in 7.1.
