Hi.

Is there a way of recovering a deleted user account on a pure Windows NT4
domain.

There may be the possibility of a backup tape existing, but can it be done
without having to restore back to a point in time.

If this is not answerable within this forum, then I am happy to raise a
microsoft premier support request to cover it.

Deleted accounts are gone.
Recovering them is a restore from backup procedure.

Also, MS no longer supports NT4, unless you are one of those special
customers who has forked out the bucks for continued support, or if it is a
case where the issue is related to upgrading NT or migrating from NT to AD.

Thanks for the information. It is as I already suspected, but nice to have
it confirmed.
