When I use a network drive as the destination of a backup, I get the following error:

'Cannot create the destination directory "H:\Backups"'
where "H" is a network drive.

or

'Cannot create the destination directory "\\Server01\cgunhouse$\Backups"'

    The solution seems to be that the service has to be run using a domain account that has access to the share. Running the service under the local system account won't work.

    do yo use cobian as a service or do you use "run as" option ?
    drive H is know by your account and only it
    if you use service or "run as" option it will not know what "H" is
