The data contained in \winnt\system32\dhcp is backed up when you back up the client's system objects. Your client option file should contain the following entries: exclude *:\winnt\system32\dhcp\...\* exclude *:\winnt\system32\wins\...\* Read your TSM client manual; it goes into detail about what should be excluded. -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
