Yes, this is a nfs share.  I expect I could set it up to directly address the 
IP of the box, if you think that may be the answer?  I frequently ssh into the 
box, but I've not done anything like this through a script before, so if I 
need to know anything particular about syntax, please enlighten me :-)

I'll see what I can do later today, but the whole point is to get the backup 
onto that particular box.  I know I can do similar backups within the local 
environment.  The server box does just that, backing up to a separate disk.
