2003 Server Active Directory

Post by penzipa »

Great Product, I have just made the purchase! I am going to be running this on a 2003 server with active Directory, what steps are necessary in order to backup Active Directory? Is it just the registry?

Thanks

Active Directory Location

Post by Barry »

The location of the Active Directory can be found under the registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NTDS\Parameters

If the default parameters were used when setting up the Active Directory then the Active Directory is under the Windows Directory \NTDS, e.g. C:\WINDOWS\NTDS

The Registry must be backed up at the same time.

Search Google for ‘Backing up active directory’ and chose Microsoft’s entry for a detailed explanation.
