>Terese,
>when you share a directory the sharing information is not written to the
>shared directory. So when you restore the directory, it won't get shared
>automatically.
>The fact that sometimes the permissions of a directory get lost during
>restore and you "get back" the NT defaults (rights inherited from parent
>dir), seems to be a bug in ADSM.
>We did some tests and got the result that:
>- ADSM is able to restore directory permissions sometimes
>- The permissions of all files get restored correct
>- ADSM fails when any user or group (that had permission entries on the
>directory) does not exist during restore time. This can happen when
>users or groups get deleted and the directory permissions don't get
>updated (and there's really no need to do so), or when you restore to
>another machine that is a member of the same domain but has different
>local groups (e.g. server\administrators is different from machine to
>machine).
>
>We're going to open a problem record on this topic. In the meantime I
>run a tool to weekly dump the acl of all servers to a file (DumpACL from
>Somarsoft). So in case directory permissions get lost, at least a manual
>"restore" is possible.

>>
>>In winding down in implementing procedures for NT clients, I could use some

>>
>>I restored some folders with different permissions and some that were
>>shared. When I do a restore, I get the NT defaults back (thus the folder
>>is no longer shared). Is there anything I can do to retain those settings?
>>
>>Is there any way to generate a log of what is being restored?
>>
>>Dsmsched.log keeps track of files backed up with the scheduler. Is there
>>any way to get logs of files backed up when manual backups are performed.
>>
>>Lastly, I have 2 management classes for NT servers. The default is called
>>CLASS1 and the other is CLASS2. Getting servers to back up with CLASS1 is,
>> of course, no problem. I added "INCLUDE CLASS2" into my option file on a
>>server I wanted in CLASS2. How can I tell for sure which class it is using
>>when it backs up?
>>
>>Any help anyone can give on these questions would be appreciated. Thanks,
