I have 2 questions regarding Shadow Copy in 2003 (couldn't find a 2003
Community Newsgroup, sorry for posting under 2000).

1. If a user needs to rollback to a previous version, can an administrator
do this for them? Or does the user have to do it themselves?

2. I know that a user can rollback to previous versions. If a user
accidentally deletes a file, is there a way that the user (or an
administrator) can "un-delete the file? Or would it then need to be restored
from tape?

Thanks for any help you can offer. If possible, please reply to

yes, an administrator can do it (assuming they have access to the files)

its not a recycle bin. They can restore it, but only to a version thats been
captured by VSS, so it depends how much had modified between the shadow copy
being taken, adn them deleting it. Though i'd imagine restoring it from VSS
would be quicker and contain a more recent version.
