Backup Regime directory

I am having a similar issue to that described in the Feb 23 question titled "Backup Regime?", but there is no conclusion or solution listed in the string.  I can say that the Browse button does work and I can browse all my mapped network drives.  In the browse window, the OK button is only available, though, when browsing the directories on my local C: drive.  I have restarted the server, as suggested and I am logged in as an administrator.  The User Migration preference behaves identically.  My guess is that this function cannot be configured to connect to a network drive possibly beause the jobs can run as a service when no one is logged on, but that is documented no where.

All of my other ghost files are stored on network drives and the server has a very limited local drive, so finding a way to store the backups on a network drive is imperitive.

Thank you for any input,

That was it.

That patch fixed the problem.  Thank you very much for your help.
