Pegasus,

This is what I get when I do that:
C:\WINNT\system32\ntbackup.exe backup "@C:\Documents and
Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows
NT\NTBackup\data\Backup.bks" /a /d "Set created 10/28/2005 at 7:54 AM" /v:no
/r:no /rs:no /hc:off /m incremental /j "Backup" /l:s /f
"\\server1\BACKUPS\Brian_BU.bkf"

Any ideas?

Go to the backup, schedule the job, and when you are done, open the
scheduler, and drag the job to the desktop.


Do this:
- Open the Task Scheduler.
- Open the backup task you created.
- Use Ctrl+C to copy the whole command line.
- Click Start / Run / cmd {OK}
- Do this:
Press Alt+Space bar
Tap the letter E
Tap the letter P
Press the Enter key
- Report exactly what you see
- Paste the backup command line into your reply
