backup path equals network. How?

[cooldjmac]

I am learning Filemaker Server and am liking it.

I would like to schedule a backup off my mac and onto a network share (in case electronic failure of my server).

my issue is I can not seem to figure out the backup path to put into Filemaker Server.

Current default path is:

filemac:/Macintosh HD/Library/FileMaker Server/Data/Backups/

How would I put the path to a network share?

I tried to put

filemac:/Volumes/USB/

More specifics is I am using the USB Disk Share on my Airport Extreme Base Station so my share shows as USB on my macbook pro. When I look in pathfinder it shows in terminal as

/Volumes/USB/

Any idea's would be greatly appreciated in helping me figure this one out.

Have Server backup to a local drive (preferably a different drive than where the data resides). Then use other 3rd party backup software (or OS scripting) to move the backup to a network drive, DVD, or whatever.

Corect. it may not be possible to have FMS do a direct backup to a networked drive, and even if it were possible, it's not such a good idea.
