Backup from Dos PC to XP Pro PC



Hi there, someone had setup the production computer (dos 6.22) with some .bat
files to do a backup to "Z". It's trying to backup to \\backup\backup which
I interpret as the computer name \\backup and then a shared folder called
backup. I had to reload the xp pro computer due to virus infections and now
can't get the backup to run again. It keeps coming up with an error message
which I don't have in front of me at the time of this posting. It just says
"z not available" even though I renamed the xp pro machine backup and created
a folder on it and shared it out as backup with no permissions required -
full access.

It still can't do the backup - any ideas?
.
