Failing Backup 1

I have read many messages that have previously been posted; however, I am still unsure what the problem is. I have reviewed the logs from when it was backing up to the most recent one that did not work. I am posting the log for someone to look at and explain to me what I can do to get it to have a successful back up. I have decreased the amount of items that are backed up because I thought it was a memory issue; however, it is still not backing up.

We currently use Veritas Backup Exec 7.3 with small business server that has an operating system of NT 4.

Also, where it states to run "InoculatIt Server," I would like to take this off so that it does not do that anymore because we have upgraded our virus software to symantec. However, since the change, I have been getting successful backups so that is not the problem either.

Here is the most recent job log:

See this:

Directory not found. Can not backup directory \LOTUS and its subdirectories.

See all the:

-skipped.

If you get even ONE file skipped, that's a failed backup.

Make sure you are ONLY backing up files that actually exist and that you can backup.

When I was getting a successful backup, there were files skipped. So skipped files is not the issue either. I could post a successful back up, many of them, showing files that have been skipped, but if you want me to post the one from Oct. 11, I would be happy too.
 
The cause of the failed backup is
Directory not found. Can not backup directory \LOTUS and its subdirectories

Skipped files will not fail a job.
