Hello, One of our groups came up with a new problem with a windows 2003 server.
They had a system that was corrupted and would not boot.

So they reinstalled windows
Did a system state and c drive restore.
They did this a few times working out that the system had to be on c:\WINNT 
instead of C:\WINDOWS and  that they had to do the restore with the client in a 
work group and not on the domain. So the client had been joined to the domain 
and then changed to a workgroup.

The restore of the C-drive and System State finished with a return code of zero?
But after the reboot,  the client was not on the domain, the SAM was not 
returned to the state that it was when the Netbackup full backup was preformed. 
Also the Registry did not seemed to be replaced as software that had been 
installed on the client did not show up.

It appears that Netbackup did his/her thing but windows did not with the reboot.

Has anyone else seen this?
Have a fix?
Know how to trace or track windows logs for this problem?

Thanks Len Boyle
