I am trying to set up a scheduled backup of normal files and folders
(including the system state) from a PC using XP Pro to an external backup
drive connected to another computer also using XP Pro on the same workgroup.
The network is working great, so there is no problem there.
When I set up the scheduled backup, it asks me for a password and to confirm
the password. I enter the password for the host computer (this is the only
profile on the PC and it has administrator rights). When I do this, I get a
message that I don't have sufficient permissions to schedule the backup.
I can do the same backup without scheduling it, so why can't I schedule a
backup?
Thanks for your help.
