When I try to backup the exchange 2000 server using the NtBackup that comes with Win2K the error "you do not have permission to access portions of M:\ & M:\Domain_name & M:\Domain_name\MBX " the administrator account is a member of the domain admins\Enterprise admins account which in turn is a member of the backup operators security group. I jhave checekd that the administrator has full access to both hard drives So what is wrong ?????????????

You should not be trying to backup the M drive.

In NTBACKUP you should be able to see the Exchange server in the list of files to backup.

Just check the exchange server name.

This does the backup of the exchange server itself.

Also you should not have any antivirus software scanning the M drive.

*Don't* backup the M: Drive. Just backup the information store and you'll have what you need.
