BEMCMD giving RPC failed when using -o90?

Hi.  I just replaced my backup server.  Installed 11d on it and got it all configured.  Backups work fine that are started in the GUI.  I have a program that generates job files that I start with bemcmd to automate my backups.  They worked fine on the old system but fail on the new.  The new server has a different drive and different name so I updated the job accordingly, but it still fails.  This is what I'm seeing:

 

C:\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\>bemcmd -o90 -v -fautojobs\a02062009-131735_94a.job


Backup Exec Command Line Applet version 11.0.7170.

ERROR CODE: 1727
ERROR: The remote procedure call failed and did not execute.

This is the job file (sans selections since it's assumingly irrelevant):

 

[General]
JOB_TYPE=Backup
JOB_NAME="Backup A02062009-131735_94a"
SERVER=GADARETH

COMPRESSION_TYPE=2

What do you think is causing it?  Augh it's so frustrating, hehe.  Thanks!
