If inv(R)NR=B,
=> inv(R)N=B*inv(R)
If N is diagonal, then the columns of inv(R) must be
eigenvectors of B with eigenvalues equal to the
diagonal entries of N. Moreover, since eigenvectors
are invariant under constant multiplication, the
columns of inv(R) are not determined uniquely. So R
is not determined uniquely either.
