Re: Re-instating a GPO

If you only restore the sysvol, you will receive only one part of your Group Policy, the template. The group policy object in the Active Directory domain partition is still missing than. Either you go for an authoritative restore of your AD or you us a commercial Recovery tool like Quest Recovery Manager for Active Directory. This allows you to selectively online restore Group Policy Objects with the AD object and the sysvol content together from a backup file.

Thanks for the reply, guess I'll just create new and work through again.
