I am having problems with frequent netinfo crashes.  Is there any way
to take a picture of the current set up adn easily restore it?  I have
tried just copying /etc/netinfo/... and /etc/hostconfig but it didn't seem
to work.
        Thanks,

Remember that they are directories.

cp -r /etc/netinfo/local.nidb /etc/netinfo/local.ddMONyr

	   Thanks,


Run a NetInfo clone.  If the master dies and needs to be restored,
then just copy all the files from the clone to the master.
