The client 'PC' is a standalone install in a VM, not attached to any domain, no 
software other than the Networker client.  I can't tell if the Sun NAS is setup 
with domain connection or not.

Entered the local admin's login, that did not work (though manual backup is 
working that way).  Getting a domain admin's password added to the backup 
config may not happen; Our division is not in control of that.
