trying to use maintenance wizard to backup the BESMgmt db in sql 2008 but it fails to query our AD. our sql server service is started as a local user but DOMAIN\BESAdmin is the logon account on the computer and permissions for db owner.

How did you guys configure your sql 2008 setup so you can use the maintenance wizard to backup the bes db?

finally was able to set the sql server service to start as DOMAIN\besadmin and then the backup worked. perl script did the rest
