>All,
>
>I am trying to restore the Windows NT registry on a test box and
>am unable to do so.  When I issue: "dsmc regrest entire" I receive
>the output below.
>
>The registry keys were restored successfully to c:\adsm.sys, but
>when ADSM tried to replace the keys it was unable to restore one
>of HKEY_USERS subkeys.
>
>Whenever I restore from the GUI I check to make the keys active after
>reboot, but since that is the default on the command, why is it
>trying to replace the registry hives before the reboot occurs?
>
>Also, the restore is being done via a Perl script after the
>administrator has auto-logged in.  After it fails, if I manually run
>the regrest command it works fine.  If this one registry key if
>failing to be replaced because administrator is logged into the box,
>then it appears the command line version isn't working as one would
>expect.
>
>Can anybody shed some light on this predicament?
