restore of Public Folders ?

Postby areid » Sat Dec 08, 2007 10:26 pm

Hi All
I have a Scalix 11.1 server that suffered a power hit which corrupted the some sectors on the hard disk drive. As a result it was considered prudent to backup scalix using sxmboxexp and rebuild onto a new drive. This was done, and after giving myself a pat on the back as both the rebuild and the sxmboximp went without a hitch, I promptly returned the server, checked all was ok and left.javascript:emoticon('8)')
Cool The next day I get a panic call saying that he can not see any emails under his Public Folder. Apparently this is where he left all of his bussines information. I have checked and I have deleted and restored his mbox, but I cannot see or find any Public folders.javascript:emoticon(':evil:')
Evil or Very Mad Can anyone help me please?

The sxmboxexp & imp commands have switchs for public folders.... luckily.

Thanks Mike

I fear all is lost, as the script I was using does not have the required statements to backup the public folder!!!

Thank you for the fast reply.

Cheers
