i appreciate if anyone can help me with this.
this is what i am trying to do:

the scripts goes to a remote server and backs up the event logs to an evt file.
code:
 backupeventlog('\\server1\Application', '\\server1\evtlogs\app.evt')
backupeventlog('\\server2\Application', '\\server2\evtlogs\app.evt')
i am getting a Access Denied error on the NT servers but the script runs without problem on W2k servers.

we have a NT network (NT4.0 SP6a PDC and BDC) with a mix of Nt4(Sp6a) & W2k(sp2) member servers

the script executes on a W2k server, using kix 4.02, logged in with my user account, Domain Admin access.

\\sever\evtlog share is given Everyone access.

i tried running the script on a NT server(backing up a remote servers Event Log) but the results are the same.

am i missing something simple? i feel like i am but just can't point at it. any help is appreciates.

Thanks
Felix
