Event IDs VSS 8193, VSS 12291 and 529

I have a backup program that uses VSS, I get these errors. The last one is from the scheduler in windows that launches the program. It says bad username or password but the job does run.

I have a client running Windows 2003 The new client was installed fresh vs upgraded.

There are two backup jobs that run from this client each night. One is a fastbit backup of tyhe file system and a second backup job that is an Exchange Server backup.

There are days when the server says there is nothing to backup and I know that isn''t the case.

Other than backups not containing the data I''m expecting I have four items in the event viewer I''m not having any luck coming up with any info on.

They are

VSS ID # 8193
Volume Shadow Copy Service error: Unexpected error calling routine IMultiInterfaceEventControl::GetSubscriptions. hr = 0x800401fd.

VSS ID # 12291
Volume Shadow Copy Service error: Error on creating/using the COM+ Writers publisher interface: BackupShutdown [0x8000ffff].


EventSystem ID # 4609

The COM+ Event System detected a bad return code during its internal processing. HRESULT was 80070057 from line 64 of d:\nt\com\complus\src\events\tier1\subscription.cpp. Please contact Microsoft Product Support Services to report this error.

Securtiy Event ID # 529
Logon Failure:
  Reason: Unknown user name or bad password
  User Name: Administrator
  Domain: SOUNDVIEWCAP
  Logon Type: 4
  Logon Process: Advapi
  Authentication Package: Negotiate
  Workstation Name: SERVER1
  Caller User Name: SERVER1$
  Caller Domain: SOUNDVIEWCAP
  Caller Logon ID: (0x0,0x3E7)
  Caller Process ID: 936
  Transited Services: -
  Source Network Address: -
  Source Port: -

While this last event seems self explanatory. I''ve checked the account and password and it''s worth noting that the Account/password errors happen when the back up is taking place.

Do you have SP2 installed?  It includes some important fixes for VSS.

Yes SP 2 has been installed since the server was first put in place.
try re-applying it.  I had a client with similar issues and just re-applying SP2 fixed them all.
Thanks I'll give it a try this weekend.
I wasn't able to get permission to install the Service Pack until the 6th, I received no errors the following day. However on the 8th all of the errors returned. THis puts me back to square one.
I have the same problem with:

Windows SBS 2003 SP2.
This started to show up in the logs last week.
There are no solutions on technet that I can find
