Re: [Bacula-users] Backup to a network share

[Mehrdad R. <meh...@am...>]

Hi

Thanks for the reponse

I have tried running the agent both as system account(which is the 
default) and also undera domain admin account(just for testing, and 
beides i have made the share writable by all, again just for testing), 
same result

As to whether the share exists in user context, well, tbh, not sure what 
u mean, how can i check/test it??

Regards /Mehrdad
