Well, looking closely and comparing perms on what is accessible and what is not, it appears my problem is one of legacy and growth. Older users with directories setup on prior servers (having moved data during server changes), perms set on servers prior to upgrading to AD, etc. That seems to be the difference between user dirs that backup and user dirs that fail. The client's server seems to have a mish-mash of odd perms. I think I will try adding Domain Admin perms to my Bacula user for now, and turn in a WO for the Client Support staff to schedule this server for a security audit to get the user share perms straightened out. Thanks for the tips, at least I know I didn't miss some obvious dir-conf setting!

Why do they choose to do logos for other non-international holidays, but nothing for Veterans? Maybe they forgot who made that choice possible. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
