I tried all the fixes from Veritas' knowledge base and still can't seem to find out why access is denied when I try to backup my exchange server.
 
Assuming your BE is running with the Exchange plug in...<br><br>Ensure that your BE Admin account (Check NT Services to see which account) that is used to log into the server has access to all directories and files on the server.<br><br> <p>Zel<br><a href=mailto:zel@zelandakh.co.uk>zel@zelandakh.co.uk</a><br><a href= poor example of a web site</a><br>
 
I'm having the same kind of trouble...Only my server that is denied is not an exchange server.&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm at wits end!
 
Jay and Zandy - check the log file for your back up, export it and email it to <A HREF="mailto:zel@zelandakh.co.uk">zel@zelandakh.co.uk</A> and I'll see if I can help.<br><br>Don't forget to indicate which of you is which!!! <p>Zel<br><a href=mailto:zel@zelandakh.co.uk>zel@zelandakh.co.uk</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
 
Zel,<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Thanks for the offer to help.&nbsp;&nbsp;I finally did get the backups to work.&nbsp;&nbsp;I had to change a series of things.&nbsp;&nbsp;The server we couldn't attach to was a stand alone for one thing, so I had to make sure that the account was the same with the same password as our other machines.&nbsp;&nbsp;Then I logged off of Admin and logged in as the backup account on the backup server and recreated the job making sure to &quot;attach as&quot; the correct account and backup.&nbsp;&nbsp;I think that one of the most important things is to remember to create the backup job as the backup account and not as admin.&nbsp;&nbsp;Thanks!<br>Zandy
