How to make a network share to appear like a local hard drive

Hello,

I know it's a weird question but let me explain:

We have backup solution wich work with some agent, and wich CANNOT make some
backup on network map.
The company i work for recently acquire a NAS that of course the agent
cannot be install on...

So they ask me to find a way that a network map appear to be a local hard
drive to trick the backup agent...

Maybe someone already encounter this problem and found a better solution ?

Anyway any suggestion would be nice

Thanks in advance

Hello Alexfoo,

What backup software are you using?

Best regards
