IvanH,
It seems your reply is BIG on opinion and LIGHT on fact. When something is marketed as a way to "RESTORE" your system, you better believe people are counting on it for an ENTIRE restore. I want to make this clear for other readers. Time Machine essential has 2 components:
1. A way for the system to make automatic backups "snapshots" of changes in your system and files at predetermined (by time machine) intervals to an external disk or "Time Machine Server".
2. Time Machine is ALSO a way to RESTORE your system in the even of tragedy. Thus, the option when booting from an install CD, DVD, pendrive, HDD, to RESTORE your system to a previous state. This implies that EVERYTHING will be put back to the way it was. Who would NOT imagine it doing that?
So, I consider it a HUGE bug that Time Machine does NOT restore network locations. I can't imagine ANY user that does not need to connect to a WiFi or other network and the associated credentials, password, WEP key, etc. to do so. Even the default "automatic" location stores all those wifi spots you've been using or your USB modem to connect to the net.
Further, there is NO SECURITY in the fact network details are copied or not. If someone steals your computer or time machine disk, you do not have security UNLESS those data are protected by encryption. PERIOD.
So IvanH, your argument that this BUG is a security feature is a hollow one at that. I have to dig deeper, but I do believe that restoring network locations worked in previous versions of Time Machine before 10.7, but I need time to check it or to test it myself.
In conclusion, I, like others here were looking for the quickest, lest painful way to REMOVE Lion Server from our systems. Disabling with a script form the command line is VERY GOD EFFORT, but only turns SOME things off, not ALL. In my experience, the BEST way to curently remove Lion Server.app without loosing all your data and a LOT of time is via Time Machine backup, clean install, and restoring settings/data via Migration Assistant. It's that simple and quite painless, all things considered.
