If you don't back up your system state, you aren't backing up Active
Directory, and this will be an immense PITA. Always back up system state. If
Retrospect can't do this, or online exchange backups, set up an NTBackup or
SBS Backup job to a file and schedule it to run waay before the retrospect
backup kicks in to back up to tape/whatever.
