Replication agent access is denied

[jaylou]

Hi All,
I setup a transation replication. Everything seemed to go very smoothly
when I set it up. When my snapshot ran it failed due to this error:
"The process could not create file '\\RP3\MSSQL\MSSQL\REPLDATA\unc'."
Access denied.

can someone tell me what account runs the Repl agent and what rights it
needs? I thought it was running thru my SQL agent's accout, but Iguess not.

TIA,
Joe
