Is there any easy way to restore data from one client to another client machine
without being logged in as the same user? We do not use a domain controller
so all the account IDs are unique to their own machine. There is now way
for me to log in under that ID on another client.
The NBPro security appears to require that the account user be logged. What
happens in a disaster recovery situation where the machine no longer exists
and the user account can't be logged in?
Thanks for your help. --- Steve
Answered my own question: Simply change any machines name to the name of the
remote client, make sure you have the same account name on the new machine,
then restore away.
Now I worry about security. I guess the only real way to secure the machine
is to use a domain controller, and I guess that makes sense.
