Using Mac - Getting "Unable to access remote path"
I'm trying to backup some shares from my iMac. I can get to it fine from my windows machine and when I setup a backup job and click test connection it comes back fine. When I start the job it fail...
I am having trouble connecting for a backup, too. My Mac Mini is a part of my Media Center at my house. I am looking to backup the media portion of iTunes (it is not part of my Time Machine backup) with this feature. I always get an error about not being able to "access remote path" when I "Test Connection" on the config screen. If I save and run the backup config, I get an unknown error.
I have things setup as follows:
Windows (Archive Bit)
Host = IP address of Mac Mini
Path = Iomega HDD/iTunes Media
Login = User name and password of Admin
The error I am getting is:
