Backup Exec probably doesn't have permissions to the remote PC. The account doing the RESTORE was probably given BACKUP privileges only.

Make sure that backup exec has administrative rights on the remote PC & make sure that the remote agent is installed on the remote PC (u cant restore system state without it).

Let us know how u go.

Also make sure you can see the System State in the backup selections.
Make sure the remote agent is loaded.
Make sure the server or workstation has a static IP address.

See how you go with the above.

Dear There;
I Think the problem is not related to the privellage; since i've ran the restore with multiple users with high privellage locally and on the domain; Also i've tried ur suggestion Justin; But with No Use
Please Advise

I am experiencing the same problem, on a test environment. I attempted to restore the system state for the domain controller. I started the 2000 server in safe mode - (restore) and attempted the restore but received an access denied message. I can restore basic files to the server. Anything you have discovered would be helpful... Thanks

Is this the only DC in your domain?? If so did you start the 2000 server in Active Directory Restore mode?

If it isnt the only DC all you need you need to do is join the server to the domain & promote it to a DC - the other DC's will then replicate the AD to it.

Hope the is helps

When you say you've tried to restore with many users with high privileges, what did you mean by that?

And, as Justin asked, can you back up the current system state?

Can you backup the system state of the computer the way it is at the moment? Do you get access denied on this?

Another thing, is the server the same name as the original?

Can you map a drive to the admin$ share on the remote computer from the backup server? If not fix this, as the System State restore needs to connect to the ADMIN$ share.

Also make sure the remote agent is using Local System Account to logon as when the service starts.

Dear All;

If any got an explanation for that; I hope to share with me....
