Hi Andy ,
I have another question...Does ADSM backup ADS ? If not, i/NDSs there a timeframe
when it will? Do the current short comnings of backing up system objects exist today
with the Netware client ?

Hi Tim,
Yes, we are very well aware of the current short-comings in the
support for the Windows 2000 system objects, and we understand
the need to make it better.
We are actively working on improving our overall support
(function and documentation) in this area for both backup and
restore.
Ideally we would have preferred to deliver fully-functional
support for the Windows 2000 system objects. However that
was not possible to do within the desired timeframe. The
current support is not ideal, but rather than wait for the
"complete" solution to be available, we thought it would be
better to provide the "basic" support, and roll the
enhancements out over the next year or so.
Best regards,
Andy

Since we should back up these system ojbects every time we do a backup,
wouldn't it make sense (and save our time) to have options (like
BACKUPREGISTRY) that could be set to backup these system objects?
