No remapped drives and no Sysprep.
All I did was ghost the server and place it back on the same server.

I did move the Citrix folder from the All users profile, but that was before
I made the image.
Everything was working fine before I restored the image.   This is weird!

Are you using drive letter remapping?  Are you running sysprep afterwards?

Subject: [THIN] Ghosting an FR3 MetaFame Server

Hi all,

I've always been able to ghost FR2 servers without a problem.  I use the
images as backups of my server.
This morning I made a ghost image of an FR3 server (upgraded from FR2) and
followed the same procedures I always do;
however when I restore the images,  MetaFrame keeps asking for the MetaFrame
XP FR3 CD to install some features.  I suppose it thinks some features are
missing.
Now, I am not truing to clone the server, I am just putting the image back
on the same server.

Is there anything different between imaging an FR2 server and an FR3 server?
What could've gone wrong?  Could it be that I upgraded the server from FR2?

TIA.

Hector.
