Database Maintenance problem

Hi again,
i was wondering if anyone has encountered this problem:
I make a database maintenance plan (through the wizard) because i want to
backup the
server files to another computer on my network
I have made a map to the other computer (as G:),
and i then go to the tab "Complete Backup" and then i select "Use this
directory" option
to select the directory for the baclup files in the other computer.
But, the listbox presented at me there, displays only the locals C:\ and D:\
drives,
not the other mapped one (G:).
I manually enter the full path name and of cource the job cannot execute.
Has anyone any solution to that ?
anthonybI use UNC paths and it works fine for me. Remember that YOU are not going
to be executing this plan it will be SQL Server Agent so G may have
absolutely no meaning to it whatsoever.
