Wolf Rogner's remarks solves my SMB backupping problem, but I restate his solution because it took me some time to understand it. The working settings are:
Storage Location: Network Server Server Address: smb://$SERVER/$SHARE (e.g. smb://homeserver/mybackups) Folder: (empty, I backup to the share and not to a directory within the share). So "Server Address" could maybe renamed as Remote URI, explaining that the share name is part of the URI.
