Unable to backup Exchange 2003 with NTbackup on 2000 server

Hello,

I upgraded our Exchange server today from 2000 to 2003.  The server is still running Windows 2000 Server w/ SP4.  I have not installed Exchange 2003 SP2 yet.  Here is my problem.

I am unable to select the exchange server when using NTbackup on my mail server, the boxes are greyed out and when I click on them it asks what remote server to query for the store.

Any help?  Besides this problem everything else seems to be ok.

Make sure you are selecting the correct account  which has appropriate permissions to allow for a backup of the store.

I'm logged on as the account that I installed Exchange 2003 which is the admin for Exchange... Any other ideas?
I have attached a picture of the problem, see how all the exchange stuff is greyed out and when I try to expand one of the exchange items I get this popup...

Any ideas?  Also points increased..

That was the solution, I figured it out a long time ago and forgot I posted this... What a dumb question, huh?  :)  Thanks.
