I have my database server that is on server A. I want to be able to execute a .exe file that exists on server B, but run it on server A.
as in:

\\serverB\c$\test.exe

Now when I run this from command prompt on Server A it works.
However when I set it up as a job using a proxy I get an access denied folder.

The proxy is using the same credentials as the user that I successfully ran the command prompt under.

Why is it failing when I run it under a job?
