Hi --
A few questions...Is the restore server or client initiated?
And do the destination clients have server-writes enabled.
And is the user attempting the restore root?
Is the restore attempting to restore the file to the original
location and is the location writeable?
And is there anything special about the backup (such as, is
it an encrypted backup?)
