Hello all,

My backup experience is more on the UNIX side of things so please
forgive me if there is a real easy, obvious answer here that I am
unaware of.  

We are trying to do a full NT restore using the steps that are listed in
Chapter 5 of the Troubleshooting guide.  We had been unsuccessful until
today.  In the past, we used the OTM to backup open files.  Then we did
a full restore and upon bootup, the machine would crash because the
ntoskrnl.exe file was one of those open files that was backed-up, so it
was also restored and got corrupted in the restore process.  We then
re-tried the whole process, this time excluding the ntoskrnl.exe file
and BOOM, it worked.  The machine booted up fine and appeared on the
domain.  Excellent. 

My question now would be what other NT files should we be excluding on a
default NT machine?  What is the typical NT exclude lists that you folks
are using?  We are thinking that just because the machine booted
properly, that doesn't mean that the machine is 100% ok.  Any help here
would be greatly appreciated.
