The admin password on our Novell 5.1 server has changed. My backups on Arcserve 6.6 are now showing as incomplete as they cannot login to the server. Which areas in arcesrve do i need to update with the new password in order for nightly backups to work again???
 
There is a way to change the ARCserve accont from Server Admin, but not sure in version 6.6
 
Best way is to create yourself a seperate account (called BACKUP for example), assign it the revelant rights to your servers, and use that to backup rather than your ADMIN account (which I strongly recommend you don't use).

Then, recreate your backup job using the new BACKUP account's authentication details. -----------------------------------------------------
