I made sure the following:- running SQL 2008 SQL Agent as a Windows admin account called "SqlService"- ensured that that account has full access to the UNC directory- I can create a backup file to a local folder through the job- it warns me on the manual backup file that it can't verify the UNC location- I tried mapping the UNC to a drive letter without success (cannot find the path specified)- I tried logging in as myself (a windows admin, sql server sysadmin) to backup to any network drive (cannot find the path specified)Just don't know how to proceed from here. I can't get a directory in the job, as asked by Steve Jones.</description><pubDate>Wed, 11 Jan 2012 15:10:13 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>andre.quitta</dc:creator></item><item><title>RE: Running a sql server 2008 job to back up to network folder</title><link>http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1041144-391-1.aspx</link><description>Free download [url=http://www.backup-sql-server.com/]EaseUS Todo Backup Advanced Server[/url] to backup your database (2000 2005 2008) with backup schedule (daily weekly monthly) to automatic backup SQL Server.</description><pubDate>Thu, 03 Nov 2011 23:54:00 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>islandwino</dc:creator></item><item><title>RE: Running a sql server 2008 job to back up to network folder</title><link>http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1041144-391-1.aspx</link><description>Capture a Process Monitor trace on the destination server and check if the account requesting access on the share is showing up as anonymous.
