To clarify it a littlebit more: the windows authentication settings are stored on the OBS. they can be found at:
Network Resources Authentication for Windows:
But, no network resources are available or selected. Can it be something else in our build? is it possible for you guys to test our build?
Ic, as you have enabled "Do not backup files not accessible by backup user", ACB will prompt for the user's Windows login and password, which will be stored and used to access all files during the backup operation. ACB would then call a Windows API to verify the supplied login/password. However, Windows doesn't allow empty password by the default blank password restriction. That's why a user with empty password can never get through this stage.
As suggested by Microsoft, you can disable this blank password restriction policy by:
1. Click Start, point to Run, type gpedit.msc, and then click OK to start the Group Policy Editor.
2. Open Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\Security Options\Accounts: Limit local account use of blank passwords to console logon only.
3. Double-click Limit local account use of blank passwords to consol logon only.
4. Click Disabled, and then click OK.
5. Quit Group Policy Editor.
