    Moving share dir

    Thanks pgliardo, I do a daily full backup on lto3 with backup exec. I do have MSSQL databases on the shares. Will the backup restore those to it's original state also or should i skip those and do a detach, copy, attach? Drew I'll look into the file server mig toolkit.

    AD Software deployment issues
