Restoring files in SYSVOL

Hi

On a Windows 2000 system using BE 10.0

I was asked to restore policy files within the C:\SYSVOL\sysvol\domain name\policies folder. However, there was no policies folder there or the scripts folder and therefore no files. On checking the backup selection list, the whole structure is present with files within and they are all ticked ready for backup.

Any ideas??

Thanks

If you want to restore just a portion of SYSVOL information like a policy or login script, without restoring all of the AD information, then you need to REDIRECT the System State restore to a folder on your backup server. Once the restore is complete you can navigate to the redirected folder and drag & drop the files to your domain controller.
