Getting Backup Exec to work

Hi,

Newbie here.  I have been backing up 2 servers (SBS2003 + Win2K) to a hard drive and was running out of space too quickly.  So I bought the DNS-323.  I used DHCP to get an IP address and worked through the web gui to format it and update the firmware.  So far so good.  I couldn't get the CD-ROM to work, so I mapped a drive, through Windows.  I created a user which matches my domain admin account.

Well, so far I can't get Backup Exec 10.0d to work with it.  There seems to be several issues:

I think the problem has to do with the NAS being in a workgroup and the servers being in a domain.  I have matched usernames and passwords, but I don't know how to assign share or NTFS permissions to the NAS.  I tried to do it the normal Windows way, and it unchecks all of my permissions after I click on "apply" or "OK".

Even when I tried to add a "backup to folder" it wouldn't let me, saying it couldn't find the G: drive (the new map I had created).  The only way Backup Exec would allow me to set up the folder was through a share \\backup\volume_1.  Probably permissions here too.

Backup Exec gave me an "unknown error", and when I looked it up, it said I should be using a domain account to do the backup.  I already am and it was working fine with the singular hard drive.

I need to make sure that the backup works properly and I would hate to have purchased this for nothing.  I hope someone knows how to get backup exec to work and is willing to explain it to me.

In gratitude,

Scott.....
