Default Setup Automatic Backups in Vista

In a new Vista setup, I am trying to arrange for backups to a 2TB network
drive. The network drive is visible and can be written to and read from in
Explorer.

However, when trying to set up the Backup, and browse to a directory, I get
the error message: ... cannot create a file when that file already exists
(error 0x800700B7). When I type a non-existing directory in the hope that
will be automatically created, I get the error message: ... cannot find the
file specified error (0x80070002). Either way fails.

What to do?

I chickened out and used a 3d party program (backup4all v.3). Very flexible.
