I have Veritas Backup Exec ver 8.5 running in my computer lab, recently I have recovered my AD2003 directory and now when I try to backup either the server that Backup Exec is running on or the Active Directory server I get an error when I try to backup the System State.
^^^^^
Unable to Attach to \\servername\System?State
access is denied

^^^^^
To backup or restore system state, administrator privileges are required.

I have checked and I even changed the backup exec services to run with adminstrator privileges.

Any other suggestions?

Thank you.
 
Make sure that your service account is admin on the machine you are backing up -- and has all of the backup and restore rights...
