@traviskrampy: "Hi All,
I have a bit of a delema on my hands.
I want to rebuild our share point (MOSS 2007) server due to addtitional hard 
drives and different RAID configuration.
I was thinking I can do a full backup and restore, but I am afraid that it 
might not restore completely.
Is there a possibility I can set up a secondary share point server in a farm 
and have all the content replicate to the secondary server?  Rebuild the 
original SP server and bring it up in the farm and remove the secondary 
server once all is done?
Thanks
Travis "
    @englantilainen: "You can't replicate SharePoint.
Stick to your original plan (backup and restore). Done correctly you 
shouldn't lose anything.

    @traviskrampy: "Thanks,
I do have another question...
I originally set up our share point server with the domain administrator as 
the service account for share point.  I heard somewhere that i should set up 
Share Point with its own service account.  If I do the backup and restore to 
the rebuilt server, using the same server name, could I restore to share 
point with a different service account for Share Point?  WOuld that mess 
anything up?
I see in some of the backup files that it keeps the domain\adminisrator 
cause that is the service account that I set it up with.
Thanks
