db_backupoperator question

I have assigned an user id to a role of db_backupoperator. But after I
created a scheduled job to do backup weekly, it won't run at all. No error
message in the event application. So I go to do the backup manually. I get
an error message when I click the "..." button to specify the backup file
location as following:
Microsoft SQL-DMO (ODBC SQLState: 42000)
"Error 229: Execute permission denied on object 'xp_availablemedia',
database 'master', owner 'dbo'."
Please help. Thanks.Hi,
Its seems your login account does not have the permissions required to
create a backup
device in hard disk. Please consult your system administrator or database
administrator
to obtain the required permissions to write in to the hard disk (Write
permission on the folder you craete the backup file).
Thanks

local win 2k user id to it. May be this is the problem. Now I just created
a local win 2k user id with the access right. But I don't want to delete the
sql user id and re-create it again? How can I map the current sql 2k user id
with the local win 2k user? Please let me know. Thanks.

The user in which you start the SQL Server and SQL Agent service should have
the permission.
Thanks

I found out that both services are started with local system
accounts. Does that mean whoever shut down and re-start the service is the
local system accounts? Or it mean something else? Do I need to re-start both
services with the user id I used to do backup?
