Backup-----push data from NAS to another source

It's a bit odd why it would go read only.
My understanding from the first post is that the NAS is unable to write to the share on the PC. It'd be helpful to get clarification on this point though.
The NAS can write to the PC. It completes most of the backup task, writing nearly all of the data then at some point fires off the error message.

So taking this one as an example:
Backup Status: Fail: destination is read-only or files/folders could not be created. Check if these files or folders meet the destination file system limitation. Cannot create file '/job_020/Backup_From_NAS/test123/__foo__.10845' (error: No such file or directory)!
It might be useful to know
- the folder permissions/owner for subfolder test123
- whether __foo__.10845 already existed in that folder, and if so what permissions it had (And who owned it).
It would also be useful to know if you could access the NAS share from the PC and copy __foo__.10845 into that folder (or not).
Looking at this at face value:
Backup Status: Fail: destination is read-only or files/folders could not be created. Check if these files or folders meet the destination file system limitation. Cannot create file '/job_020/Backup_From_NAS/test123/__foo__.10845' (error: No such file or directory)!
Does /job_020/Backup_From_NAS/test123/__foo__.10845 actually exist on the NAS? Maybe the real file name has an illegal character in it for a Windows file name? Or could it have been deleted while the backup job was ongoing? Are you backing up into a Windows folder that is too deep and the resulting full path name is more than 260 characters?
