After suffering a server crash and re-installing SBS 4.5, I tried to restore the Exchange server from an ntbackup backup.<br><br>This trashed the entire Exchange installation and I ended up having to re-install SBS again.<br><br>I don't need everything in the Exchange backup, but there are some e-mail address and messages in the Public Store that I would like to retreive.<br><br>Is there any way I can do this, or are there any companies out there that are able to extract data?<br><br>Thanks for any tips.<br>
 
Refer to the thread by bjgadmin titled &quot;Move Exchange DB to a new server&quot; and you can get a few answers to restoring Exchange database. Exchange is very restrictive as to what parameters have to match in order to do a restore. You can only transfer the database to a roughly identical server.<br>What kind of crash did you get and what were the errors?
