I too am experiencing the same problem as many of the posters on here. I am trying to backup my ReadyNAS Pro to an Iomage StorCenter. I have tried to use the root as the source as well a single directory. Test connection works, but it is unable to access a remote path.

Which version of the firmware are you using? Try adding a password to the share and the backup job and see if that works.
