Too bad there is no way to upload images to the forum. Would be easier to show you.

Found this off google images. It shows how the backup window should be. I see this when I use Firefox, and IE9 with 4.1.6. When I see this, I can fill in the information I need, and it all works. The test connection button also functions as it should.
When I use IE9 and 4.1.7 though, I see something different. The host field is gone, the path field is extended and the browse button is gone. In the path field I see this filled in by default for CIFS: "Example: //host/share/path"
For NFS I see "Example: host:/path"
When I see this, I cannot get the backup job to work, no matter what I do. The test connection button always reports a failure, and none of the dozens of permutations I have tried to type out have worked.
Any job that I make in Firefox or with 4.1.6 will be possible to start, stop and delete from IE9 with 4.1.7, but editing it in any way breaks it.
