William,

In response to your question about the registry will get backed up if the
\config directory is excluded the answer is yes if you have the registry
backup option set in the dsm.opt file.  What ADSM does when starting an
incremental backup is to first run the WinNT utililty REGBACK to backup the
registry to a subdirectory called adsm.sys.  Under this directory are the
files created by REGBACK.  There is one caveat that this forum has
discussed in detail.  Specifically, if a user is logged on during the
backup, that persons registry entry in the HKEY_USERS sub-tree will not be
backed up.  This has backfired on some folks.

Good luck,
 Dan T.
