Win2k scheduled Backup and log

[Sn]

I am having a problem generating a log from win2k backup when I am running
the job from schedular. The NTbackup job works fine and I can see the log
when I run it manually. But when it run from the scheduler the job using
win2k schedular(Accessories--->SystemTools---Task Schedular no log file
will generate. Do I have to use AT.exe?
Please help

Hi

Are you trying to place the log file on a network drive?

NTbackup creates its logs in
c:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\something\something.

You cannot direct the logs to another location, so do a search under
c:\documents and settings and you should see a directory with lots of
backupnn.log files in it.

Have a look at this article:
