I'm have two domains setup DomainA (Windows 2003) and a DoaminB (Windows NT4.0). I have a two way trust setup between the two domains. I can map to network shares from either domain. I have Veritas Backup Exec running on the 2003 domain and Exchange 5.5 running on an NT 4.0 server. I can see all the shares, etc on the exchange via BE. However, when I try to select the mailboxes and public folders I am always prompt for a password. I think it is a permission issue on the NT 4.0 domain. I have granted permission with exchange administrator and give the backup account administrator rights on the NT domain. Of course Veritas never returns phone call even with a priority support contract.

thanks in advance...

I would also look at adding the backup account fromthe 2003 domain to the Backup Operators group in the NT 4.0 domain. Might work for you, since Backup Operators have permission to circumvent standard permissions.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

sounds like your trying remote admin e.g. remote backup from one domain to another. is this correct?

by tootler

Correct, I have the backup software running on the 2003 domain, backing up an exchange server (5.5) in a NT4.0 domain.
