Backup of Public Dir Fails

This is strange. I was using Legato backup to backup data across a share that resides on a Novell server. Most data backs up, except for the Public directory. I checked permissions - they looked good. Logged on as Admin to perform the backup. But still it would not backup - actually the software reported it backed up 0 files.

But, when I highlight all the files underneath the Public directory in the backup software. It performs a backup fine. It only fails when I select the Public directory at the top level - and, yes, all the files and folders underneath are marked for backup when I do this.

Any Ideas? Thanks a bunch.
