Backup Exec and Two Domains.

[553702508]

Here is my situation.
I have two domains which are not physicaly connected.
And I need to backup both of my file servers.
So I plug a second network card on my backup exec server and physicaly connect it to the second domain.

When I try to access the second domain from the remote selections I get an error that the device is not connected (or something like that)

I have created a logon account for the second domain but when I make a manual selection of \\(2ndfileserver)\drive\*.* I cannot change the resource credentials to the correct account (change is greyd out).


What am I missing? What am I doing wrong?

To backup the server in an other domain there are basically 2 things which you need to do

1.Trust needs to be established between domains.

2.The second thing is Backup Exec service account should be a part of the local admin group of other domain.

3.Ensure that all the rights for this account is given.
For more details please refer to the document below.
