SQL Server >> Backup device

Hi all,

I tried to create the new backup device with UNC path on the remote server
\\remoteserver\share on the sql server. But, I got "can not verify the
path" message and I have no problem to access the share through the sql
server. I checked the share and file security on the share and file and they
are fine.

I can not verify why I can not create UNC backup device on this sql server.
(windows 2003 R2 SP2 and sql 2000)

Can anyone help?

SQL Server186

SQL Server >> Backup device Try using sp_addumpdevice directly. It might just be the GUI which try to "assist" you.

How did you access the share through the SQL instance?
