Hello, I have five computers, four running win 200 professional and one
running win98. I back up each computer (full backup) weekly to a linksys
network usb storage device on my network using the windows backup V5 supplied
with Win 2000 on each machine. I use the native back up program on each
machine except for the win 98 machine which I back up over my network from my
2000 desktop using it's windows backup software. All was going well until I
suffered a HD crash on the '98 machine. After replacing the hard disk in the
machine and reloading win 98 I attempted a restore from my network storage
using the Win 2k backup program on another machine. The backup seemed to
proceed normally but didn't restore any files. When I opened the log, each
one of the files was skipped because of "insufficient privilege for the file"
Does anybody have any ideas before I hand MS $245 for a phone call to
technical?

The message probably means that the account under which you
run your restore operation does not have adequate access rights
to the folder(s) you're trying to restore.

Did you ever attempt a test restore before?
