Symantec Backup Exec 10d returns the following error when backing up my
DFSRoots folder

Backup- \\EOHSERVER02\C: SYSTEMV-79-57344-33928 - Access is denied.

I've checked the permissions on the folder hierarchy and the backup
exec remote agent service account has admin privilidges at every level.

I'm using a domain-based DFS (no replication) setup on a Windows Server
2003 R2 server with two Windows Server 2003 SP1 servers serving the
namespace. Backup Exec runs on yet another Windows Server 2003 SP1
machine, with remote agents (RANT32 with Advanced Option File Option)
installed on the DFS and namespace servers.

Help!
