backup to network

backup to network

 

  

Guru's

I was under the impression that when set up SQL to use a domain account to run SQL service and agent under SQL20005 that I would be able to backup a database to a network drive which I have mapped via explorer. When I try to backup a database this way from management studio, the mapped drive does appear as an option, only local drives are displayed for destinations of the backup.

any comment would be appreciated.
