It seems: The Exchange 5.5 version of the dll needs to be in the path for NTBackup to support Exchange 5.5 The Exchange 2k version of the dll lives in exchange\bin and needs a key in the registry for NTBackup to support Exchange 2k. If you have both the 5.5 dll in the path and the 2k dll in the registry NTbackup shows both "Microsoft Exchange" and "Microsoft Exchange Server" targets in the backup selection list. If you select a 2k exchange store to backup NTBackup seems to use the 5.5 dll to access it, skips the target and returns unrestorable/corrupt database errors. If you rename the 5.5 dll, one of the exchange targets disappears from NTbackup and it works.

Cool. The problem was an exchange 5.5 dll called edbbcli.dll in the winnt\system32 directory. Renamed this and the backup is running now... well, NTBackup is, I haven't tried veritas yet.

Hi All, I have a weird one. I "inherited" this one around 20 hours ago. Its Exchange 2k (build 4417.5 - what SP is that?) on Win2k server SP1. The server has not been backed up since March 2000, if at all. The priv.edb is 3.5Gb, the log files are 15.5Gb - they ran out of drive space yesterday. Backup Exec gives "access denied to directory" when trying to backup the information store. NTBackup completes in 1 sec and skips all files, saying they cannot be restored. BE runs as local system on the same machine. I tried creating a new user, adding it to Exchange Servers group and fed it to backup exec - same error. I also tried - for troubleshooting purposes - delegating full control of the exchange organisation to the everyone group with no luck. I have reversed these changes. Any thoughts on where I should look? I suspect active directory might be broken - I don't know the history to be sure.
