i agree with martin. you need to create a domain account with proper access
to the network drives.

I had the same problem and it was because the TSMsched-service was running
with the system account.



Try running the service as another user or try backing up using
      commandline.

Please respond to Paul Fielding <paul.fielding AT home DOT com>
I'm trying to back up a couple of network mounted drives.  In the past I've
done this by simply adding the drives to the domain list.   This time,
however, I'm having problems getting them to run, and I suspect that since
I am using the NT 4.1.1.0 client this time that it is either a) a change in
the config I need to make, or b) a bug in the code.  In my dsm.opt file i
have tried the domain statement each of these two ways:

(N: and O: are the network shares)

DOMAIN "C:"
DOMAIN "D:"
DOMAIN "E:"
DOMAIN "N:"
DOMAIN "O:"

and

DOMAIN C: D: E: N: O:

In both cases, this is what I see in the dsmsched.log:

Executing scheduled command now.
11/21/2000 10:20:35 --- SCHEDULEREC OBJECT BEGIN TEST 11/21/2000 10:20:00
11/21/2000 10:20:39 Incremental backup of volume '\\RTSM\C$'
11/21/2000 10:20:39 Incremental backup of volume '\\RTSM\D$'
11/21/2000 10:20:39 Incremental backup of volume '\\RTSM\E$'
11/21/2000 10:20:39 Incremental backup of volume 'N:'
11/21/2000 10:20:39 Incremental backup of volume 'O:'

However, neither the N: nor the O: drive are touched.

Any ideas?
