It didn't work at first, until I put a space after the comma. Quite important though, the comma seperated list is actually comma and space seperated.

It may be another issue, but restoring an image to a RAID0 array will not work unless you are using hardware RAID controller. You would need something that allows you to see the array from DOS, and most software or Fake/RAID controllers do not work without Windows, and therefore not in DOS. You may be able to restore your image to a single drive, that obviously must be as large or larger than your original volume. However, if you only saved the image to DVD, you might run into other issues, like read errors or disc errors. Good luck! FXIX,

Some clients might be better off with that one, and I didn't even know about it. Also, I agree about the Fetchmail thing. I like Fetchmail, unfortunately some clients can't use it in there MS only environment. But hearing "fetchmail" gives me an idea for mail archiving... but that's a post for another topic!

This only works with Mirrored drives, not striped, because once the image is restored, the array is rebuilt based on the new load. With RAID0, once you break your array, it's gone. This why RAID0 sucks! IMHO. I know it has it's benefits, but drives are so cheap anymore, just setup RAID5, or RAID1 with larger drives. (This method will not work with RAID5 either though, it's only for RAID1.) AT least with the mirror, you have a copy on each drive. Also, this totally depends on your RAID controller and how it operates. FXIX,
