Andy, I tried your suggestions with the same results.
I'm running the commands from my desktop, not from the
server that is performing the backup. That is why I'm using the -nodename 
option.
(the client level is the same on both machines) 

I went to source machine (CT100) and the command worked fine, for both the
drive local to CT100 and the remote share backed up by CT100.

So, for some reason, when using the -nodename option, I can only view
the drives that were local to node I'm working with when using the Cli,
but if I start the GUI, with the -nodename option, I can work with them all.

Ah, I reread the original post, and I see it is necessary to use the
-nodename option in this case. :-)

Best regards,

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.
