Well, perhaps you could run the backup service on the machine that
is actually connected to the drive? I don't know if it's feasible,
but in a way itseems more appropriate - that machine is the server
that serves that data.

Yeah, unfortunately that moves me from the Home service to the business service ... which is significantly more expensive.

In this particular case ... I have the mapped drive flagged for offline use ... so the data actually lives on my local machine, and is synced periodically.

Maybe I should reverse the sync ... keep the file on the local drive, but setup a process to sync it to my server periodically.
