BackupExec not recognizing share on a LaCie 1 TB drive as a Backup to Folder destination

We are running BackupExec 11d SP3 and purchased a LaCie 1 TB Ethernet drive to use a Backup to Folder destination for BackupExec.

The LaCie is configured on the network, create a share, assigned rights to it, etc.  We can get to the drive via Explorer, create folders, files, etc.  It's working fine.

However,  within BackupExec, when creating a "Backup to Folder" Destination, cannot access the share.
The LaCie drive shows up in Network Places, but when clicking on the + sign next to the device, it will not open up and show the shares that are on the drive.

I thought it was a user rights issue, but I created an admnistrator account with same password as the Windows Server administrator account.  I can access it via Explorer and My Network Places, but not from within BackupExec.

Anyone have this problem and solved it?

Thanks,
Jim

Great, Jeff!
That worked.... I thought I tried it before and it wouldn't work, but it did this time.

Thanks!
