I have 3 partions and lots of directories
can i replicate these directories to a import machine.Also can Windows NT support other import and export paths? because I cannot place all these directories under
c:\winnt\system32\repl\export.Is there any solution?

You can only export one data path, i.e. C:\Whatever\*. One solution is to use robocopy from the resource kit. The directions are included and its relatively painless to run. The scheduling part will be the limiting factor, as you'll have to manuallyschedule it using the AT command. I'm using this solution now for the exact reason you posted, alot of directories and a lot of BDC's. Quake III maps, Half-Life skins, oh ya, login scripts and stuff too. ;-)

I would check into the Resource Kit "SCopy". It will maintain file permissions after the move.
The easiest way would beto do a backup and restore to the new location.
