Hello!

I�m trying to backup my Windows 7 using build in CompletePCBackup.
As it is not possible to store the image to a network drive (e.g. Z:)
or the path behind the network drive \\server\share while using
the GUI, i have to use the command-line:

wbadmin start backup -backuptarget:\\server\share -user:username
-password:password -include:c: -allcritical

But I receive the folling error:

ERROR - The user name or password is unexpected because the backup
location is not a remote shared folder.

And it does not work using the mapped network drive typing
-backuptarget:Z:

Well, the share is obvoiusly present, as I can map a drive
to it and access it via the Explorer. It is also possible
to access the share directly by typing \\server\share
in the Explorer�s adress line.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Markus
