Unable to get Pre/Post commands to work 2

<new backup exec user>

I am running 9.1 on a 2003 Server. I need to setup .cmd files that use rsh to connect to Solaris servers. I have the cmd files created and they run fine from the command line on the backup server. The problem is running them from the pre/post commands inside the backup. I continuously get the following error:

Error: Could not start Pre Job Command < d:\Pre-Post\test.cmd >. Error (5): Access is denied.

I've check the security settings and the account I'm logged in as has full permissions. Could this be a local security policy setting?

Here is what I would put within the backup job:
d:\Pre-Post\test.cmd

I'm sure this is a rookie mistake on my part.

thanks in advance.

Hello, i had a similar probleme with the pre and post-job.
It seem that the command or batch file have to be in this directory : C:\Program Files\VERITAS\Backup Exec\NT
If they are not in that directory, they simply don't work.

Hope it help

Verify, that the "BE Remote Agent service" is started with the "System Account". If you you want to start it from the remote server, the files should be locatet there.
