Let me explain what I did. I tried 2 different senario and get 2 results.
User object: gary
user folder: garyfolder ( gary is the trustee of garyfolder )

First senario,
Delete user gary from the NDS tree. Delete folder garyfolder from windows
explorer
Restore user object gary first, then garyfolder. Result: user gary show up
as a trustee in garyfolder properties page. Perfect recovery.

Second senario,
Delete user gary from the NDS tree.
Restore user object gary. Result: user gary doesn't show up as a trustee in
garyfolder properties page.

In other words, if a user object is corrupted or deleted, after restoration
of object, I will lose all the trustee to the folders to which the restored
object is a trustee. Is this a TSM problem or is it the nature of Netware? I
don't know netware enough to differentiate.

Hector,

this should work, when the NDS and the Folder are backuped from the same
node. When you restore a NDS object to another machine, a restored folder
will show a corrupted trustee in its ACL. This occurs, because Novell works
with local objects id's instead of the objects names.

best regards,
Wolfgang Bayrhof
