Cory, After reading your post, I realized I wasn't sure which user was doing the backups. Turns out I hadn't specified it, so I set uid = administrator and that fixed it.
I wonder if there's a better user to specify than administrator. Is uid = administrator a security issue? -Rob Cory Rivera wrote: > Rob, > > Hopefully I have a chance to help you out like you did for me. > > I don't know how much of an issue security is for you, but for the shares > that I back up I set "Full Control" under the Security tab in the properties > menu for the user that is allowed to do the backups.
