backup in map card not working

[sankarsadasivan]

Back up options set on input/output cards are not working properly. It works if we set it to map directory, if we pick a custom directory ,Mercator is not creating any backup files. We are using Mercator 6.7 in windows 2003.
Any suggestions?
Is there a setting on the .ini or event server administration to control map card level backups?
Please help

does the user have access to the path? no right, no writes...

if your map is at path c:\maps\map1.mmc can you backing up file at a subfolder like ...c:\maps\backup\outputcard.bkp?
