Thanks guys, I'll keep checking and trying.  I needed to rebuild this linux 
server anyway so I'll try again with updated software.
But Windows isn't part of this.  like I originally said, the mountpoint for 
/var/lib/backuppc is an Iomega NAS, so I'm pretty sure there is some flavor of 
Linux/BSD/something under the hood.
 
Anyone else care to take a stab at this?
Thank you!
Ray

This is what I gathered from what I read last night. I'm sure CIFS 
 would work, maybe on a native linux filesystem? I'm just not going to 
 mess with NTFS for this.
