I have a maintenance plan that runs every hour to backup up logs from several servers to a linux server. The linux server is being used for storage only. But every several hours the the plan will fail saying the login name or password is bad. This usually happens on the first database, and will fix itself somewhere between the 3 or 4th database on the plan. All the other plans for the other servers will work fine.

IS there are question? are you wondering why this occurs? It's probably some delay between the SAMBA (assuming you are using this) sending back the authentication. This is why I don't backup remotely. I backup locally and then copy to a remote server. That's actually what we are doing here at SQL Server Central. The db is backed up locally and pushed to a separate server.

Okay, I have a question that is NT related, but directly related to this.
I move my entire backup directory to another server, where it can be put to tape.
I wrote a little program to compare the TO and FROM dir's, then do Deletes, and Copy to the TO dir keeping them in sync.
The program runs fine when run as admin, but when I use WINAT it can't see into the from dir (UNC or Mapped Drive). There is a MSKB that shows how to fix the schedule service to run under a domain account. But on my system the option is grayed out, something about an IE 6 change to the scheduler ???
I've tried making the from dir readable by everyone, would rather not.
