We're in the process of testing IDR. Our test environment is one media server and an exchange server. We're trying to backup and restore the exchange server remotely from the media server. Everything went fairly smoothly when I created the IDR diskettes but its a different story on the restore. When I get to the very end of the restore when it asks for the remote server name, domain, username and password, I enter those which it accepts and starts the restore on the media server from the Exchange server. Then it promptly dies about 10 seconds later. If I go to the media server to look a the failed job log, there is an error about not bein able to attach to \\servername\c$ access denied. I can ping the server I'm trying to restore to by name and IP. It would appear to be some type of authentication issue. I've followed the veritas documentation to the letter. Is there something I'm missing?
