That may have been it -- the machine in question did indeed have access 
to two networks.

I ended up getting around it by going back to smb-based backups on just 
this one client, and to get around the permission issues that 
continually elude me (why a member of group Administrators can't read a 
user's entire directory contents is beyond me), I ended up using the 
main user's login/pass for the authentication :-P  Fugly, I know, but at 
least I can back up his files now.
