Re: Trying to restore Win2k3 AD at DR site from a .bkf



Thanks Ace,

I did just what you said, and work! I got the server up. But got a AD
problem, when I go to restart the DC, and the DC comes back up. I can not
log in. After I disconnect the network and HARD shut the server down, and
restart. And After 10 to 20 mins, I can log by in. What is up with that?

Again thanks for your help.
Nick
