I Have a 2003 server configured as a simple file server and a mail pop3 server this is NOT part of a domain. If I do a system state backup, Does this backup the user accounts and passwords that are created by the admin and server mail pop3 accounts If not can anyone recommend a method to get this done. I have about three hundred users and I fear the worst when (IF) the server will crash one of these days..

Hello, this is included in a system state backup of a single server: The Boot file The COM+ class registration database The registry http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc785306(WS.10).aspxBest regards Meinolf Weber Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties or guarantees , and confers no rights.
