You can use NTBACKUP to backup your documents and settings, since it uses shadow copy (I believe). I do this on a couple of machines, since profiles are critical for restoring. Unfortunately the bkf files are rather large, and they'll change every time, so you'll be backing that file every time.. eating up your disk. Another example of needing this is backing up your Outlook.pst file, etc. This is when backing up windows really sucks. hanj _______________________________________________ Dirvish mailing list [email protected] http://www.dirvish.org/mailman/listinfo/dirvish
