We had some fun here last week following one of my larger backup groups upgrading all their windows machines from 7.3.3 to 7.4.3 in one day.

What they discovered the next day was that every single installation had removed the directives they had placed in the networkr.cfg file.

Is this a known/expected behavior? I didn't find it documented in the NW 7.4sp3 upgrade guidance or installation documents. Anyone seen this before?

Thanks,
