Welcome to the forums. As you are stating log shipping is configured between the instances, ensure that both PRIMARY and SECONDARY can connect to each other and from PRIMARY the folder where backups will be stored is visible & SQL service account consist necessary privileges. Refer to this http://www.sql-server-performance.c...0111:oukd4z_wcve&q=log shipping&cof=FORID:9#0 for more information on log shipping. Also I believe in a workgroup network ensure the referred path is shared between the computers.
