This article claims to correct the issue of NTBACKUP.EXE
still running hours later with 100% CPU utilization, but
not showing as such in the task manager. This causes a
big problem for people accessing the server. MS's
solution was to update the service pack to latest
version, well, I'm on SP4 right now, and the issue is
still dominating. Anyone else have any ideas?

Thanks!
 
Have you tried setting a lower priority to that process? In Task Manager,
right-click the process and select Set Priority.
 
We had the same issue on the network we are building
right now. Email me at (e-mail address removed) and I will give
you the procedure we did to fix the problem.
