how to take backup of the users created on a domain (active directory users and computer)

i tried csvde but got wired..

i want the users to be backup so that i can simply import/restore them in any domain, as per necessity

is there any such third party tools

thanks

if i am not mistaken backup exec has that feature, install on your dc and backup your system state as well as other system related resources that the software identifies.

You can backup the System State with the builtin ntbackup.exe utility. Type ntbackup /? in the Run box.

However, the System State is used for recovery purposes. You can't, as far as I know, restore the data into any domain. If I'm not mistaken, it has to be restored back into the original domain.

The System State backup contains all necessary boot files, the registry, AD database and several other critical system objects/files.
