We have one server running windows 2003 server and a seperate domain controller. we currently have the user data backed up daily. Is it possible to back up the domain controller? If so how?
 
Select the C: drive and Shadow Copy components on the Domain controller.
 
shall i do this using Norton Ghost?
 
No, ntbackup.

Alternatively Quest sell a product for backing up domain controllers that is particularly good.

Alternatively again back up the system state data using Veritas.
 
sorry is that the system state on the server?
 
The backup selection tree will show "Shadow Copy Components" which includes the System State. Is the server Windows 2003?
