I have 5 clients on our network which has a W2K server. If I try to run the
built in Backup from the server, some of the clients such as the Win 2000
PC, it can see and backup without a problem, others such as my XP Pro PC, I
get the message "Unable to Attach To Server \\StevesXP"

Any idea why this is?

Setting up shares on the PC and then letting the server back those up to an
external HD.

Have you tried mapping a drive letter to the shared backup drive and backing
up to that letter instead of the UNC pathway?
 
Not sure if I explained it correctly... Backup is running on the server.
When I go into the Backup program on the server and I try to setup a backup
job, it lists all of the PCs on the network but when I try to select them,
some it will connect with others I get the "unable to attach to server
\\stevesxp"
