Is this the place to ask about Sharepoint

gorebrush

If so...

We have Sharepoint 3 installed on a file server, with the database living on a SQL 2000 server.

The file server died, and I have no backup (I probably do, but let us assume that I dont)

I have a replacement file server all ready up and running, however, without the configuration database (which I can see lives on the file server?) I guess that I am hosed?

Can anyone shed light on this please?

As far as i remember.(i haven't touched a sharepoint in 2 years).
The configuration resides on the database, just reinstall the sharepoint and point it to the database it should work.

Thanks for the reply. I will see what I can do with this.

I have got a spare, identical machine and a System State backup from before the front end was removed though, should be able to get back that way.
