[NTLUG:Discuss] Has anyone been able to access Samba sharefrom SQL Server Agent?

[Ralph Green, Jr.]

Howdy,
  OK, then next I would try a couple of things.  One, I would go to a
command prompt a try creating a subdirectory. and then copy files to it.
Basically, we want to check that the permissions are set up right.
Then, I would look to see if SQLserver is trying to access some
directory name that must pre-exist.  Lpk to see if there are any
directories that look important on the Windows share you back up to(you
can do the backup to a Windows share, right?).  Maybe you need to copy
some file or directory.  I am sorry I am not more specific here.  I
don't have experience with that database.
Good luck,
Ralph
