Graeme,  How do you do that?  I must be getting quite dense, but the New
dialogue doesn't let me browse to my NAS Box to save the archive; only local
directories.

Have I missed something?

It's mounted as a Samba share. /etc/fstab entry is
//192.168.1.6/data /mnt/nasdata cifs credentials=/etc/samba/auth.192.168.1.6.graeme,vers=1.0 0 0
IIRC it took a bit of fiddling to get the access correct.
