Hi,

I'd appreciate if anyone could tell me if it's possible to return mssql backups 
on a network share.

We are trying to run tests on a sun storage 7000 series and they do share the 
drives over CIFS, and Windows 2003 can see them as network shares.

I tried to return backups by using network path like 
\\servername\share<file:///\\servername\share> and mapping the share as drive, 
but none of them worked for me. I have to keep the datafiles on the network 
shares, cause sun insists on our using CIFS instead of iSCSI. We had a couple 
of controller failures on our iscsi attempts.

We are using networker 7.4.4 on both server and client side. Our networker user 
for sql server version is 5.2.0.71 on Windows 2003 environment.

We get an error as follows on each attempt:

Recovering files of client 'xxxxxx' from server 'xxxxxx.lcwaikiki.local' to 
client 'TEST1'.
