SYMPTOMS
When you run the Import DTS utility, and the configuration file is located on a mapped drive or on a protected share, the utility fails.

When the remote directory is shared out (with full access for everyone), and the share is used, the Import DTS utility works correctly.



CAUSE
This behavior occurs because the job runs under the SQL Server Agent context, which is set to localsystem.



WORKAROUND
To use mapped drives or protected shares, set up the SQL Server Agent context with an account that has permissions for both servers.



Steps to Reproduce the Behavior
 Move the file ChatConfig.xls to a remote server. Map a drive to the remote drive. For example:

net use g: \\redsand1\d$

 Set the Import DTS utility to use the remote share. For example:

G:\Program Files\Microsoft TV Server\TV Applications\appdata\ChatXML\chatdata\ChatConfig.xls

 Run the Import DTS utility.
