Hello,

I am soon migrating Exchange 2003 mailboxes to an Exchange 2007 SP1 server
which reside on a Windows Server 2008 O.S.
First I have to get the backup in place and working.

I am using Symantec BE v12 SP1 and I have followed all guidelines when
configuring this backup of the Exchange stores.
Now, when I am backing the stores up I get Access Denied messages which I
have started a case with Symantec Support.

One thing that is strange though and which I was hoping anybody in this
forum to help me with is that when I start EMC on the 32-bit O.S. on which BE
v12 reside, I also get Access Denied - see down below.

Maybe the backup error and this error derive from the same source ?
Anybody ?

Error message from 32-bit EMC on backup server when starting it up:

For backups, you might look at this.

There is a registry change needed to allow remote streaming backups.

I agree on the part Martin has stated, however i believe its an issue
with IIS not being allowed to access remotely. Check if you have IIS
installed on the local box. If Yes - see if you can connect to the
server using IIS console, else if its not installed check if you can
install and run the backup again (if it works you know what the
problem was)

Hi Johnny,

This should help you...
