Author Problem backing up mapped drives in Netbackup - HELP!!!

Hi,
Hopefully someone can help me. I need to do one off backups of of the
log files on our webservers. We're using Netbackup 5 and the webservers
are w2k. Unfortunatleythese boxes dont get backed up normally so we
dont have licenses for the agent. What I thought was to map the
required drives to a W2K server that does have an agent and back the
up that way. Butthat's where the problem starts - cant get it to work.
Keep getting a Status Code 71 - none of the files in the fiel list
exist

Filelist eg - x:\weblogs\ where x it the drive I've mapped the
network drive to.


Checked on the veritas website and thought if may be permissions. So
logged in as a domain admin, which mapped the drive from the other
server no problem , and changed the client agent in services to log on
as the same admin. Still getting 71 though - any ideas? Should I be
using a local admin rather than a domain admin to sun the service
under??

Any help would be gratefully received!! tearing my hair out at the
moment!!

Cheers

Hi Gary,
I'm not knowledgable on the NBU product, But is there any chance Gary that
either of these address your issue?
