Permissions are fine for the server.
I have run a client initated backup and have seen that one file is backed
up, it does not indicate why it is not backing up any of the winnt\sysem32
\config security files.
When I query the server for a restore, there is nothing in registry?
It is an NT4 environment, version 5.1.213, so Repairdisk and Registry are
the system files to be backed up.
Any ideas?


---------------------------------

It would be worth checking account permissions on this server.
Make sure that the system user has not had its permisions denied.  Compare
it with another working server.

I have one client whose registry files will not backup. It is an
authentication server, and the following files appear locked when the
backup tries to access them. We have other exact servers, with registry
being backed up without problems, has anyone seen this before? any
suggestions?
