Backup to remote snap server

I am trying to backup my windows 2003 server to an offsite snap server using veritas backup.  The snap server is on another subnet.  I can log into the snap server from internet explorer, but I cannot backup to it. Is there a way to map veritas backup to the snap server so that I can direct my backup jobs to the snap server?  The snap server model is 4200. thans

Have you tried mapping a drive letter to the Snap server to the system with backup exec installed?

If so, you shoud be able to save the backup as a file to the mapped drive.

If its on another subnet - and you can access its shares - you should be able to map the drive using its IP Address. Then have Veritas backup to the drive. What version of Veritas are you using ?
