I've always used Robocopy in cmd line and it seems to work fine, but if you really want the gui, Microsoft has (IMHO) a better tool called RichCopy. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2009.04.utilityspotlight.aspx?pr=blog -Greg From: Ken Schaefer [mailto:k...@adopenstatic.com] Sent:

These are simple 2008 security enhancements. Why are you creating files at the root of a partition anyway? It's a bad idea! Otherwise, you need to open your cmd prompt or windows explore elevated - that is, click on the icon for them and select Run as Administrator. From: Neil Standley

I've used GParted a number of times (never on an Array, always on virtual servers) without issue, until three days ago when running Gparted on my 2008 VM caused it to blue screen and I could NOT boot into the server at all afterwards. Please make sure you backup your data before running GParted.

If you're simply searching for *.pst, you have to include hidden files/folders. Where the PST is located is dependent upon the O/S. If the user's NT profile folder has been deleted, then the PST is deleted. From: Jon Harris [mailto:jk.har...@gmail.com] Sent: Saturday, January 23, 2010 12:20

Try looking here - C:\Documents and Settings\%USERNAME%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook PSTs and OSTs are usually stored in the above folder. If the file was deleted, you can try using a file restore program like EasyRecovery from www.ontrack.com to recover the file.
