Tony M. is exactly right. Each time a JET log file is backed up, this key is incremented. This key was once used to orchestrate incremental back-ups in Exchange. As the AD does not support incremental back-ups, this key is basically ignored. I believe the key still exists to mitigate possible legacy compatibility conflicts.

I guess this information is somehow used internally by the ntbackup.exe. Why do you need to know?

I'm looking for information on some Windows 2000 registry keys and I can't find anything of many of them. I've searched at MS' and some specialised web sites with no result. Which sources of information do you recommend me? Just to try, any of you know what's the following key for?: HKEY_LM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NTDS\BackupInformation\NTDS Backup Interface\Last Backup Log Thanks in advance.
