Backup database
Hi,

I want to backup my MSSQL database using a script, but here lies the problem: The MSSQL is on its own dedicated server seperated from the dedicated WebServer.

I tried to run a script with this sql command:
Code:
BACKUP DATABASE <dbname>
TO DISK = 'drive:\path\to\file\filename'

But, of course, this won't work because the script will try to write on the MS SQL server instead of where the WebServer where my account is.

Is there anyway I can do this? I just want to have the backup saved on the folders in my account in the WebServer instead of the MSSQL server.

Thanks in advance!

If you have access to both the webserver and sqlserver, you could share a folder out on the webserver and map a drive on the sql server to that share.....

Hi,Scatt-Neko!If u have not db master's privilege to control db,u wouldn't run this sql script on the db server..Although u have a account on the web server,u can't control the db..It's my mind..

You could probably create a DTS package to run the backup and then FTP it to your webserver.....
