Having no end of problems with Backup Exec on one of our servers

What other products are out there? The server is only a file server so no exchange intergration or anything like that is required

Thanks
 
We need to encrypt our backups which rules out Windows backup, also email notification for jobs failing is required

I'm getting error messages about the Remote Agent:

'The resource could not be backed up because an error occurred while connecting to the Backup Exec for Windows Servers Remote Agent'

I'll also get C++ runtime errors occasionaly. Its a brand new server and this is the second install attempt
 
Yeah service is running, byte count never moves from zero

sometimes it will sit queued for ages others it will fail straight away, although that is probably down to me changing settings

but either way it never makes it past zero

Os is 2003 Server R2
 
Right wasn't getting any debug info from the agent service

enabled debug on the job engine service and this is what I get:
