Re: Problem restoring NT server
I also had run into this a few clients back. I also had a problem open and didn't get anywhere. I've just done some 5.11 BMR restore tests and have not run into this - so it may be fixed (or I just haven't run into the same situation yet.)

Re: Problem restoring NT server
Thanks for the feedback. The person doing the testing has been able to get around this problem. I don't remember exactly what she said she did, but it works. True, this message/issue should be address by IBM.
