Hello all...

Backups of a W2K server running Citrix Metaframe XPe are failing, with the
following error in the server activity log:

   04/30/02   18:17:36      ANR0480W Session 9355 for node CITRIXADTEST
   (WinNT) terminated - connection with client severed.

After 10 minutes, the server reconnects with the client and the backup
restarts, only to fail again a few minutes later.  The following error
occurs in the dsmerror.log, but I often see such failures on non-Citrix
servers without the backup stopping:

   04/30/2002 18:17:35 ANS4987E Error processing '\\citrixadtest\m
   $\WINNT\system32 \Perflib_Perfdata_380.dat': the object is in use by
   another process


Following the invaluable information on this forum, I looked at the
solution for the "sysfiles not on C:" problem, which I thought was fixed in
4.2.1.32.

To test, I changed DOMAIN from ALL-LOCAL to just "M: N:" and the backup
succeeded.  I reset DOMAIN to "M: N: SYSTEMOBJECT" and the backup failed
again.

I'm using 4.2.1.32 on a W2K domain controller, backing up the system
objects without problems.  What's up, am I missing something, or is backing
up system objects on Citrix servers still broken?

Thanks... Ken
