Backup to FW drive on networked system

[dod488]

Hi Dave. Back from visiting the inlaws. I've made some progress with this. I'm now using a shareware product called SharePoints. I can now see the directory on MY external FW drive from HER laptop. Permissions are set to r/w for her user. When I run the full backup to a sparse image, SD errs at the erase action. Here's the end of the log file:
