I have Backup Exec for Win NT/2k Version 8.6 Build 3808 and keep getting failed backups with the error:
Unable to attach \\(server name)\c$
The item was not found

I've changed the BackUp Exec service log ons to everything under the sun with admin rights on the 3 servers in question and still get this error message on RANDOM backups and RANDOM servers. One day it backs up fine (although it stills returns a failed backup status even though the job log/bytes backed up appears to be fine) and then the next day it says it was unable to attach to the same servers that it backed up the day before and then other days it backs up one of the servers and not the other two. Any help/tips would be most appreciated.
Thanks,

Lance
 
stop services, rename bewinui.uni file in ..\backup exec\nt\data folder and restart services.

Re-authenticate to servers by drilling down file structures in Backup selections/Remote selections
