I have disabled netbios over tcp/ip on my network. So when I go to do a backup, None of my servers show up when browsing the network to select which machines I want to backup. Is there a another way to chose using UNC or anything else. Also my backups kept failing at a certain point. I'm wondering if it's because my old job was done when Netbios on and now that it's off the job can't find the servers? I am using Acrserve 2000. Any help would be great.

Try going to the branch where you would expect to find the target server, right click, then add object. This will allow you to add whatever servers you need to your list.
Beware using Add Using auto-discovery, that usually adds servers by specifying the IP, and you are often better off specifying servers with name resolution.
