| First of all, it is better to use UNC paths rather than mapped drives. Secondly, you need to make sure that SQLAgent is not running under a LocalSystem account and that this service account has rights to the network share. |

| SQLAgent and MSSQLServer should be started with the same account, but just in case, you should make sure the MSSQLServer service account also has access to the mapped drive. If the backup is scheduled it will use the security context of SQLAgent, however I believe it uses MSSQLServer if you run it yourself (Without scheduling it)-Chad |
