What I do is basically follow the methods outlined in this MS article:
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q125/9/96.asp
In order to get to the original registry key that contains the shares, you
can use the load hive function in regedt32 to load the old system registry
hive from the adsm.sys directory. You save the key that contains the
original shares from this loaded hive. Then you restore this key to the
current registry on the client by following the procedures in the article.
The only caveat I have encountered is you may need to look in
"CurrentControlSet###" (001, 002, etc) to find the original shares registry
key in the loaded hive. Also note that this wipes out any shares you
currently have. It's an all or nothing deal.

The share information is not kept in the directories themselves.
Instead Microsoft stores this info in the registry. To restore
all share info requires restoring the registry key in addition
to the directories.

Dear all,
Restoring the Data/Directories on a Windows NT 4.0 system does not restore
the "shares". Is this the expected behavior or a bug?
Any ideas or suggestions?
