I am having this error on my backup server, it is just a winxp pro machine with a bigger hard drive.

\\Server\backup is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the adminstrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. The network path was not found.

All I need to do is to restart the pc and the connection is back again. Sometime it is ok for a week or 2 then it will come back again then have to restart again....

Any idea?

Is the computer getting a DHCP address or are they static?

When you cant connect to it using \\svrname can you ping it?

Do you mean you have 1 central computer other computers back up on to?
Are just backing up in to the main computer shared folders or a different way, as i some times have permisson problems accsesing shared files on other computers on my network

The way to fix this is Righ click on the folder thats sghred and select sharing

Then Make sure allow sharing is enalbed

Then select permision and tick the full acsess


Then try again

Hope this helps
