-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Eric,
Eric,

there is no need to have an administrator logged on to the OS/2 LAN Server,
except you are using the 'local security'-feature of HPFS386 (I've never
used local security so I'm not sure if you really need to).

If you are using HPFS386 the ACLs are stored directly in the file system
and ADSM backs them up. If you are using standard HPFS (entry server) the ACLs
are stored in NET.ACC which have to be backed up.

In any case you should backup the ACLs regular with BACKACC. For that I use
the following batch which BACKACC all drives, writes the results to a log file
and copies the log file to alias LOGFILES on server EXAMPLE, for manual
control.

  backacc C:\ /s /v  2>C:\IBMLAN\ACCOUNTS\ACL.LOG
  if exist D:\* backacc D:\ /s /v 2>>C:\IBMLAN\ACCOUNTS\ACL.LOG
  if exist E:\* backacc E:\ /s /v 2>>C:\IBMLAN\ACCOUNTS\ACL.LOG
  copy C:\IBMLAN\ACCOUNTS\ACL.LOG \\EXAMPLE\LOGFILES\SERVER1.LOG

You can launch the batch by LAN Server AT-command or by PRESCHEDULECMD in
DSM.OPT. The resulting files NETACC.BKP and ACLBAK*.ACL can be backed up
normally.

HPFS386 DASD-limits have to be extracted by separate routines as explained
in the redbook 'Using ADSM to Back Up OS/2 LAN Server'.
