Thanks Ed, When I was at Sungard (the DR Site) last week trying to figure
out why I could not get Exchange to work I ran across what you mentioned in
TechNet. I tried it and still could not get the restore to work but by the
time I did that I might have screwed something else up that would not allow
it to work. 

I backed up the exchange server last night with NTBackup and I will try and
restore that next week on a recovery server.

Please be aware that you can restore a backup taken with Backup Exec using
NTBACKUP.  For that reason, you may not need to license Backup Exec for your
recovery server and just use NTBACKUP instead.

I am having so many problems with Backup exec, I am disgusted with it.

Is anyone using NT Backup for exchange? Is there anything I should know?

I don't care about the Brick level backup anymore, I just want to know that
I can restore without a bunch of hassels in case of a disaster. Does anyone
have any suggestions for scheduling? I will be using Windows 2000 server and
DLT drive.

Any hints or suggestions would be appreciated.

TIA

Gordon
