EFS Backup Data Recovery Testing
Now I'm testing my disaster recovery procedures and this is what I'm finding.
I take my encrypted tapes and my backup of the DRA's Certificate with private key and go to a stand alone workstation. I restore a test file to the workstation and import the DRA's certificate, I create a local EFS policy and specify the DRA. I cannot access the files.
I'm not on the domain and not logged in to the system as the DRA because that user account is a domain account and this is a stand alone non-domain workstation.
Am I trying to do the impossible? I surely hope not. Any ideas??
Thanks,
