Thank you for your reply.

I understand how the local SYSTEM account works.  I am only backing up local
resources.  I know that by default, the SYSTEM account has FULL Control of
all local resources.  Our NT Admins have manually removed the SYSTEM and
Administrator's account from the NTFS permissions for all the user
directories.  My question is: how are my backups, and restores, still
working if they are not using the Administrator or the SYSTEM account?  I
think I'll do some testing using the Security Auditing.
