Hi Sardar, The changes aren't that significant so I was really hoping I could just copy a few items across. Fairly confident all our customisation have been deployed as solutions. I'm more concerned about synching them again. Our SSP also sits on this box.
What I don't know is if there is any synchronisation between the WFEs themselves, or if any changes to them comes from Central Admin server only.

But if you have any binaries/features installed manually in WFE you have re-install it manually. Here is a article http://sharepointnotes.wordpress.com/2008/01/10/adding-an-extra-server-to-an-existing-sharepoint-farm/ about adding a new WFE. For your case you may have to remove the Faulty WFE before doing anything.

We have a small problem. Our production environment has two web front ends. All servers are virtual machines. Someone (not me!) managed to revert one of them to a previous snapshot by clicking the REALLY BIG BUTTON on the VM window that performs this wonderful task. Upon realising the mistake we immediately shut this box down. Question: If we can't selectively restore this box (which we can't!) is it possible to just copy across the 12 hive and any custom DLLs from the other WFE? Kind regards, Paul ________________________________ List address: [email protected] Subscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Further instructions: http://www.codify.com/lists/ozmoss ________________________________ "This email (including any attachments) is confidential.
