Try adding this to your start of your backup batch file:

Net use \\BPA\ipc$ /user:administrator PasswordForAdministrator

Oh, and you may want to use blat.exe to email results to you.

Subject: Backup Ex5.5 using NTBackup on Workstation


After many problems with BackupExec I have decided to follow Paul
Robichaux's advice and try using NT Backup

I have written a batch file to be run on an NT4 workstation with DAT
drive, and Exchange Admin loaded to bake NTBackup Exchange aware.  If I
run this batch file directly, it works fine, but I am trying to get it
to run via the AT scheduler.  I have now found that it will not run as
the scheduler creates a null session without access to the network.  
Q124184 suggests changing the account that the Scheduler uses, but on
the workstation this option is greyed out.

Can anyone give me any pointers on getting this working, or will I have
to run it on the server?

The batch file is as follows:

Ntbackup backup DS \\BPA IS \\BPA /hc:on /t normal /v /d "Blue Planet
Backup" /l c:\backup\daily.log /e
