I would try to restore the tape to an offline box, mount the database,
exmerge the user's data, and then your boss can view the employee's
work. We use ntbackup as well, the method we use is to backup the entire
server on tape, and exmerge all the  mailbox's and backup them up as
well. If we need to restore a single mailbox or just view a single *.pst
file, exmerge can solve that problem.

        But can I restore an individual's mailbox only if we've been
using ntbackup as our backup method?  I may have misunderstood (i'm new
here), but i thought that was only able to do the whole shooting match,
not individuals.
         
        And no, unfortunately, the budget here is dreadful, there are no
test or backup systems.  Ugh.

                My first guess will be to restore the users mailbox, and
the export the calendar... do you have a test system you could put this
on?

                        Hi All,
                         
                        I've been asked to figure out how, if it all, to
do this.  We had an employee who is no longer with us, has been gone for
probably about a year.  My boss wants to get a copy of his old Outlook
calendar.
                         
                        We've been using ntbackup.   Assuming I can even
find a tape that goes back far enough to still contain his data, is
there any way to restore this without screwing up everyone else's mail?
                         
                        How would I go about this?  Anyone have any
ideas?
                         
                        Thanks,
