This is indeed a reason why backing up to mapped drives isn't
supported
with Windows Vista.

According to Microsoft, to use a NAS device as a backup target, you
need to create the share with "Full Control" privileges for the user
whose
credentials they want to connect with.

The account in question is adminstrator on the NAS. Why would that not
work?

If it matters, I didn't use a mapped drive letter. I used UNC,
\\NAS1\BACKUP.
