Unable to backup with NTBackup

I am attempting to perform an ASR backup on our test server using NTbackup, but I keep getting errors.  We have backup Exec installed and this is able to backup and restore so I know that the problem isn't hardware related.  I have disabled the tape drive in backup exec and stopped all the services.  However when I attempt o perform an ASR backup (or even a normal backup) to the tape drive I get the error "The device reported an error on a request to MS_UpdateNtmsOmidInfo.  Error reported :11" and gets no further.  checking the backup log file gives more confusing info  - Error: C: is not a valid drive, or you do not have access.  I am a domain admin so I do have access, and I am able to backup if I put it to a file rather then the DLT drive.  Any suggestions?
