SYMPTOMS
If you try to use the Backup tool to back up a Web folder or FTP site that you created as a Network Place in My Network Places, you receive the following error message:

Backup Error. Drive not responding.

Also, if you browse to a Web folder as the destination for the backup, the path listed in the Backup media or file name box resolves to an alternate destination (such as your desktop) instead of the Web folder.



CAUSE
Backup cannot back up from or to Web resources.



RESOLUTION
Map a network drive to the resource that you want to back up from or to. Share the folder on the appropriate server, if necessary.
