Check out the NT permissions on the drive itself.  I ran into a similar
instance when someone was trying to lock down the server and removed
'SYSTEM' from the drive permissions.  Either add system back or run the
TSM client as someone who has rights to the drive.

I am getting failures like this on two of my servers. I am at a loss to
figure out
why.

My client is WinNT 4 SP6a and TSM client 5.1.1 with TSM Server Win2K at
version 4.2.3.1

I looked up the messages, but I found no solace in their words.

Suggestions?
