Backup Exec 2010 R3 - Can I backup server in different domain?

Gonzouk

Hello,

I have 2 servers I need to backup from our Backup Exec 2010 R3 server. 

  1. One of the servers is based on a domain where we have a domain trust.
  2. The other server is based in a domain where we don't have a domain trust, but this domain is on our LAN and we can ping the server and browse to it's C drive as we know the domain admin username and password.

Hoep you can advise.

Thanks

You need to have a two way trust between the 2 domains

...to expand on what Amol said, once you have a 2-way trust in place, create a service account in the domain you want to backup from, and add it into the list of accounts in BE. When doing a push-install, use the remote domain's service account details...
