Recovery Agent Probs

Hi,

I encrypted a file on a previous Win2K Server and after I
re-installed W2K Server, I've found I forgot to back up my
certificate and keys. I'm trying to get my Recovery Agent
to work but it won't allow me to recover the file. WHAT
DO I DO???? Answers ASAP as I really need to get into
this doc.

If you do not have access to a Recovery Agent's account with a valid recovery key (the key of the recovery agent that existed at the last access of the file), I don't think you can recover your data. I ran in the same problem once and so far I didn't find a solution.
