Unable to add network share for backup on Nucleus One using Mac Pro M1 (ref#ESSG5G)

I struggled with this some time ago and wrote up some instructions that might be helpful. They can be found in post #21 in the thread found here.

I’ve not seen mention of your doing this step:

@RobH

Very important: Click Options…, then toggle Share Files and Folder using SMB to On. Under Windows File Sharing, ensure that your username is entered and checked on, and that you’ve entered your password for that username. If you omit this step, Roon will not be able to connect to the shared folder.

This step escaped me for the longest time because… Windows File Sharing? Why? I’m a Mac user, after all… who needs Windows? But it turned out to be the one thing that fixed my problems.
