were taken using Sysprep. Rejuvenating or restoring the operating system and applications will not work with a Sysprep base backup. Mapping a network drive for backups The mapping network drive function relies on the registry settings located at HKLM\Software\Lenovo\MND. The Universal Naming Convention entry contains the computer name and share of the location you are attempting to attach. The NetPath entry is output from the mapdrv.exe. It contains the actual name which was used when making the connection. User and Pwd entries are the username and password entries. They are encrypted. The following is an example entry for mapping a network drive: UNC=\\server\share NetPath=\\9.88.77.66\share User=11622606415119207723014918505422010521006401209203708202015... Pwd=11622606415100000000014918505422010521006401209203708202015... For deployment, this file can be copied onto multiple computers that will use the same user name and password. The UNC entry is overwritten by the Rescue and Recovery program based on a value in the rnrdeploy.xml file. Setting up user accounts for network backups When the RRBACKUPS directory is created on the network share, the service makes the directory a read-only folder, and assigns it access rights so that only the account that created the folder has full control over the folder. To complete a merge operation, MOVE permissions exist for the User account. If logged in with an account other than the account that created the folder initially, such as the administrator, the merge process will fail.
