[ngw] D069 When Restoring - Fixed

[Mario Gingras]

I have finally figured out the problem...  adding the domain as part of the username did the trick.

In the restored post office server's log, I could see anonymous login attempts.  Even enabling anonymous logins to the folder with full permissions to everybody in the world did not bring my messages back!  Making the remote user as domain_name\administrator fixed it.  I would imagine that had the server not be a part of a domain that this problem would not have occurred.  I guess it's another reason not to have domains :-)

Map the drive to the restore area in the Admin's login script.
