    Hi,

    I have Windows 2000 member server in NT domain. I created several local
    groups that contain domain global groups and gave permissions to local
    groups on the directories. The server has some applications that do not work
    as expected and I need to format and reinstall windows 2000. I don't want to
    backup system state as it includes everything (registry etc). I need to
    backup only the local groups (SAM) and install new windows 2000 and restore
    the local groups (SAM) in order to keep the groups with their SID's as they
    were before.

    Is there any possibility to do that ?

    Is it enough to copy winnt\system32\config\SAM and then restore ?

    Thanks,

    Haim
