Make sure the admin account associated with the job has "log on as batch job" rights in user manager.

I have had a scheduled job running on an NT 4.0 SP6a workstation running for 6 months to do a periodic backup to tape. I have moved the data that was being backed up to an NT 4.0 SP6a server with the same tape configuration. Internet Explorer 5.5 SP2 is installed on both machines. I copied the job and the batch file that it uses to the server. I ran the batch file logged in as the username that I used for the scheduled task. It worked fine, so I left the scheduled task to run. When the time came for the scheduled task, it started and stopped on the same second with a status of 0, but no backup was performed. The username for the job is a domain user that is part of the administrators group on the server (and the workstation). The batch file contains "ntbackup backup d: /t daily". I have checked the user rights on the server and they appear to be identical to the workstation. The task scheduler is running under the system username with interact with desktop checked. What have I missed?
