Ron, Or restore it to a off network version of the same server and export the DL's and import them into the live networked server.
Cheers Paul Standards are like toothbrushes, everybody agrees you should have one, but no one wants to use yours -----Original Message----- From: Pillai, Raj [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, May 30, 2002 6:45 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Restore distribution lists Ron: If you have an offline backup: stop all services, rename DSADATA dir to DSADATA.old,restore the DSADATA directory from backup ,start system attendant and directory service export the DLs to a .csv file . Bring back the old DSADATA dir and import the DLs. This should work. Let me know if you need step by step. I did this not too long ago. Raj -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, May 30, 2002 11:35 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Restore distribution lists All of my distribution lists were deleted by a sister company who THOUGHT they could delete them without effecting me. The THOUGHT the ADC was not functioning and that they had removed any connections to my 5.5 server. *sigh* So, I need to re-create all of my DL's, or restore them from back up, but I have never done this. It is a simple Directory restore, or does the IS need to get involved? If this could cause corruption, I might as well get busy re-creating them..since I don't even want to go down the corruption road. Thanks for the insight, Ron _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] **************************************************************************** **This e-mail message, including any attachments, contains information that is confidential, may be protected by the attorney/client or other applicable privileges, and may constitute non-public information.
